I'm -0 on this. Even if it shouldn't be too difficult to implement I'm not
sure it's worth doing it, since it's not something that happens often enough
and when it does you usually want to explain something more to the second
issue anyway.  Moreover fixes should be related to a single issue.

always write the issue number at beginning of the line though.)

It would be useful for the devguide repo too, now that we have a 'devguide'
component (and possibly for 'benchmarks' too, as you suggested on
#python-dev).
