It is a responsibility of the _author_ to keep the GitHub PR title and 
description consistent with the work done. That's just basic housekeeping. It 
is a responsibility of the _committer_, by the time the GitHub PR is ready to 
be merged, to make sure a message exists and is same, then copy the PR 
description and set as contents of the commit message the will be done in the 
git repository.

This RFC is not describing _how_ people should do their work. It is merely 
creating a baseline for what is acceptable to maintaining a healthy repository 
with tracking of commits that contains a description of the changes being made.

It is out of scope for this specific RFC text to have such information (as in a 
_step-by-step_ guide here). These guidelines you suggest are implementation 
details that we can do in many ways, prior to officially communicating 
committers about this new rule - when it comes to effect.
