This improvement could be guarded with a new Project setting.

Add the following code to app/models/issue.rb:

  def update_author_when_reopened
    if reopened?
      self.author = User.current
    end
  end

Add a call to it for before_save:

- before_save :close_duplicates, :update_author_when_reopened, :update_done_ratio_from_issue_status, :force_updated_on_change
+ before_save :close_duplicates, :update_author_when_reopened, :update_done_ratio_from_issue_status, :force_updated_on_change
