See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-14990.
After chatting on #asfinfra, they first have to investigate the
possibilities in JIRA. If it's at all possible, we'll have to come up
with a good text (perhaps depending on the screen real-estate we can
afford for this). Any suggestions?
We could take inspiration from the big yellow box on
http://subversion.apache.org/reporting-issues.html or from
http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/issues.html I guess
