I think the "Target Milestone" field is poorly named, at least with
respect to what we use it for. In practice this field is set to the
version of m-c on which the patches originally landed, and doesn't
change when patches are uplifted to other branches.
However, I've seen many people mistake this field for something else,
most commonly the release they want the fix to go into. This
misunderstanding is totally logical given the name of the field, hence I
suggest we rename it to something that more accurately describes how we
use it.
My strawman proposal is "Patches landed in" but I'm sure we can come up
with something better. I do like using a past-tense verb in it though so
it indicates it's to be set after the bug is fixed rather than before.
Thoughts?
