At the very least, the commits should have some way for downstream maintainers
to figure out what patches need to be applied to keep up, etc
I don't think we need to wholesale change tickets. Affects version is a pretty
good indicator- if a patch is rolled in for a given version (and not all of
them), then that version should go into the 'fixes version' section on submit.
However, we still want to keep track of tickets that affect a version but
aren't fixed in that version ("known bugs").
So by all means, let's clean them up if they need it - it can only help.
