Great!

It would be even better if you could add links to one or more actual
commits that contain the specified trailer.

For example for openstack, it would be nice to have real examples of
DocImpact, SecurityImpact and UpgradeImpact.

Yeah, what is also interesting is that some people/projects/tools use
things that are in some ways trailer like. For example GitHub parses
commit messages for things like "fix #1234" and there are also people
adding refs at the end of commit messages like:

[1] http://www.example.com/example_ref.html

Thanks,
Christian.
