Locally we added this svn 'pre-commit' hook to prohibit a commit that did not contain a reference to a jira issue. In jira, via an issue, you can then find the commits that below to it. Although it is sometimes a little annoying, it forces everybody here to work always according jira issues and commits can always be easily traced from a certain jira issue. Not sure if it would make people happy in an open source community :-)
It's at least not that uncommon. The geronimo community worked after an even stricter model called Review Then Commit (RTC, [1]) until recently. They created a Jira issue for *every* change and it needed at least 3 positive votes until it got committed.
I agree adding a Jira issue for important svn commits or such enhancements is a Good Thing, but I would not enforce it.
