I added it for tagging PRs that don't have a tracker ticket open (e.g., 
small usability cleanups that weren't bugs).  It's a bit less overhead 
than opening a ticket and going through the usual process.

It was helpful when every third PR had to be cherry-picked to 
luminous; that will be less common once the release is out the door.
