But the possibility exists for the Collector to somehow go away, or be
replaced with something else that will generate an issue id of "123".  It's
not a high possibility, but it's happened before.  Even the CMF now has gone
back to low issue numbers since they've switched over to CMF Collector
instead of Tracker.  PTK Tracker issue 4 and CMF Collector issue 4 are
different things, and a message that just says "fixed issue 4" doesn't help
anybody looking through logs a couple of years on.  Or even a couple of days
on.

At least include the title of the issue, so that those glancing over logs
and checkin lists can go "oh, cool, that's fixed" and let those interested
in the details visit the collector.
