More generally, I see little benefit in trying to stay close to the format 
of trac tickets.

I didn’t think of having this as the default template. Just an optional 
template for former Trac users who are less familiar with GitHub (like me). 
But as I’ve now seen, templates and issue forms aren’t the right tools for 
an interface, and it’s probably harder to do than I expected. Perhaps it 
would be sufficient to have a reference to the migration documentation 
<https://github.com/sagemath/sage/wiki/migration-from-trac-to-Git**b> in 
all the templates we offer, at least for the initial period after the 
migration has taken place.
