Is there a way to enable a transition from a status to the same status? For instance, allow a status change from "assigned" to "assigned"?
I know that doesn't make sense, but please bear with me.
After using Mantis for a while, it still seems counterintuitive that there is a quick way to add a note, reassign, and change the status, yet there is no quick way to add a note and reassign without changing the status. Rather than have a "Change Status To:" button, I would prefer to have a "Quick Update" button which allows the user to do any combination of all three things: add a note, reassign the issue, and/or change the status.
It seems to me that an easy way to achieve this would be to enable transition changes from a status to the same status. That way, the "Change Status To:" button would effectively be the "Quick Update" button I described.

Re: Change status to the same status
"There is the Updating Issue Information" page / bug_update_page.php.
Use the "Edit" button from "View Issue Details" page, or the pencil icon from "My View" or "View Issues" page to get to this page.
