I would also prefer not to see those in the description, especially that we'll have automated bug comments on autopkgtest regressions soon.
That being said, I don't think someone not part of the SRU team should be editing the SRU tempate without discussion with the SRU team. Can we get this change reverted and at least have a discussion started about it? If we allow anyone updating the SRU process as they see fit, soon we'll have no official documentation and more people will be confused.
