With the scheme above, the following would be valid (among other more
nonsensical looking things):

    # Removal before YYYY-MM-DD.  Bug #1, #2

IMO it definitely should require a word with similar meaning to "on" or
"after". How exactly that gets worded in the end, IDK. Maybe it'll end
up as "exactly one of 'on' or 'after'" or something like that.
