This version looks good to me, thanks for all these detailed information!

I'd like to give some comments to the new _wants_* helpers when I merge
it (don't need send a new version again: ), to help others know the
different usage of _wants_* and _fixed_by_*. How about below comment:

# Compare with _fixed_by_* helpers, this helper is used for un-regression
# test case, e.g. xfs/122. Or a case would like to mention a git commit
# which is not a bug fix (maybe a default behavior/format change). Then
# use this helpers.

# Refer to _wants_git_commit

Feel free to make it better :)

Thanks,
