So, I was editing
http://trac.openlayers.org/wiki/HowToContribute#AcquiringandUsingRepositoryCommitPrivileges
, and realized that we could probably benefit from the automatic ticket
management plugin that trac ships. So I've set it up -- as described on
that wikipage:

"""
Trac will automatically pick up on messages with text in a specific
format, to help you manage tickets from commit messages. Including
text of the form:

  * (Closes #925.) -- Closes the ticket (with the revision number and
    commit message added as a comment).
  * (References #925.) -- Adds a comment to the ticket with the commit
    message. 
"""

Parens are required, because I didn't want to screw over anyone who
didn't want the behavior. 

Alternative text for 'References' is:
  references, refs, addresses, re, see

So you can do:

(See: #925.) 

When working in a sandbox, and it will add your commits to that ticket
so that users tracking the bug can keep track of it.

Feedback welcome. I'm happy to turn it off if neccesary -- just seemed
low cost, high reward.

Regards,
