Well, at least I won't go against it :)
When fixing it in first place, docutils devs feedback was that we wrongly
used Inliner, in the sense it's supposed to be internal.
What if another docutils internal change breaks it again ? Don't think it
won't happen because the discussion I had showed that not every docutils dev is
happy with last change. So, chances are that there'll be another refacto, maybe
for 0.15 or 0.16.
Better solution, in both docutils devs & myself, should be to make Sphinx
allow customization.
Second concern is that, IMHO, we shouldn't allow 2 different syntax to
reference trafficserver issues in documentation.
This usually leads to confusion (why should I use one more than another ?)
Finally, the fix I made has another positive effect: we now have a
consistent way of referencing issues, for both Jira & Github. For now, I don't
see any way to differentiate Jira & github ones with the Autolink feature.
My 2 cents,
