I'd complain about discussing prioritisation, but now it occurs to me that
phabricator should be resolving all of this soon enough anyway, so nevermind.
Sorry for bringing that up.

2 out of 15 is pretty bad.

The standard format of the canned edit summaries currently matches a common
vandal tactic (that of using misleading simple edit summaries when doing
something else entirely), but changing them to use a prefix (which basically
just means changing the strings and doesn't require any real technical changes,
unlike tagging) would address that.

Please don't needlessly impair the workflow of the users who keep the sites
worth visiting, especially when it has a relatively trivial fix.
