Even more fun, the request was initially submitted and told to ignore
karma for auto-push, but the initial submission had an incorrect bug
number in it. Went in to fix that, and apparently didn't notice that
bodhi had helpfully decided to re-enable the auto-push check box when
all I wanted to do was fix a bug number. (in other words, "edit"
doesn't properly honor the current settings of the ticket).
