After some discussion with other BMO devs, how about this proposal?
We add a (info) link next to the Milestone label on the show_bug.cgi page that

I think the Target Milestone field is poorly named, at least with

What is the use case for Target Milestone (in the Patches Landed In

I'm sure there are other use cases, but the most common one for me is
using it to sort out tracking flags for regressions and otherwise
