 tried to recategorize existing tickets as appropriate. (Including those
 that are closed.) It's possible that I might have missed a few though, so
 don't hesitate to make changes if necessary.

 Yes, I saw that.  I was going to suggest it, but you beat me to it. :-) I
 might not have bothered with the closed tickets, but it doesn't hurt.
 Fortunately, the ticket numbers are in a global namespace, so changing the
 component doesn't break existing references.

 If I have to "make changes" it would actually be "request changes", since
 I don't have permissions to do anything other than add comments (even in
 tickets I created and/or own).


 It would also be useful if the `Version` attribute were based on `legacy-
 support` versions rather than `base` versions, but I don't know how hard
 that would be.  And it would need to be updated on each `legacy-support`
 release (similar to what's presumably done on each base release).

 Since the only use of tags is currently for release versions, a version
 list could easily be derived from `git tag -l` with a bit of massaging.
 E.g. `git tag -l --sort -version:refname | sed 's/^v//'`.
