#3178: Add user-friendly explanations of current workflow keywords on a ticket
-------------------------+--------------------------------------

Component:  Trac         |   Keywords:  needs-patch needs-design
-------------------------+--------------------------------------
 When a ticket is closed on a completed milestone, a helpful message is
 shown at the bottom of the ticket:

 It would be neat if similar messages were displayed on tickets which have
 the following keywords:

 * `needs-testing`
 * `needs-refresh`
 * `needs-patch`

 The intention is for inexperienced users to see a helpful message that
 clearly states the next action that needs to be taken on a ticket. For
 example, the message for a ticket with the `needs-refresh` keyword could
 be:

 > This ticket has a patch that is out of date and no longer applies
 cleanly. The existing patch needs to be updated, or a new patch needs to
 be written. Click here for information on how to write patches.

 Ideally the messages would stand out more clearly, possibly in the same
 style as the "Are you in the right place?" message at the top of the new
 ticket screen.
