I feel that this should be represented by a single Jira issue. Jira

multiple people perform the same fixed in different branches sounds
like trouble waiting to happen.

I feel pretty strongly about this. Is there some big problem that
would cause us to split an issue across several Jira entries?

I feel pretty strongly about this too. Obviously its better to fix
stuff in all branches at once, but it won't always be possible,
especially after 1.3 diverges from 1.0, 2.4 vs 1.1, 5.6 vs 2.1 etc. At
some point you have to say that there are different issues in different
branches, even though the symptom is the same. I think the jira guys
know of what they speak when the recommend using multiple entries.
