And talking of changeset refs in tickets, for those not much familiar 
with Trac yet, the following conventions automatically create clickable 
links in ticket output and are the preferred way to go in my opinion:

Use r1234 for a changeset.
e.g.
"... committed to SVN trunk in r1234, and backported to 5.0 branch in r1235"

Use #1234 for a ticket number
e.g.
"See also ticket #1234 for the documentation updates."
