Yes, thus the logical consequence is that tickets are opened with the
major editors,
to include that in the validators, and remind the users to fix the
underlying issue.
When the object is edited without removing the fixme/FIXME, the
validator could lowercase it while saving the object anyway.
Great, but why not fix the existing in the database at the same time.
Analogy: When a waterpipe bursts, you fix the pipe to prevent further
flooding, but you *also* mop up the water on the floor.
This process was done with other tags that were found unnecessary,
such as _created_by_ on objects, and very successful without bloating
the history.
Created_by is different. It was added mechanically by editors, not
users. Within entities it's a deprecated tag. Fixme is still a current,
relevant, user added tag. (Saying that, I still think Created_by should
be bulk removed)
