Well, I wrote something [1] for QAWG which discusses post-review 
complaints about test cases, with analogies to errata. 

The set of states that a single test case can occupy has been the 
subject of much discussion over the years. If your procedure keeps 
all submissions, you may need more states (e.g., remanded for fix, 
rejected, etc.) to account for tests that are not to be used but also 
not "active" in the review workflow. I consider this desirable, if it 
stops test case authors from wasting their time writing cases that 
someone else already wrote.
