I'm not sure about this.

Yeah, I wasn't happy with this, the suffix was KnownURL, but that
made the class definition exceed 80 chars.

I think we should do this too. Especially for large projects that make
the switch.

Emacs' bug tracking seems to be changing currently, otherwise I would
stick that in there as well.

We would also need to have a new help topic, or extend "bugs" to list
the ones that are already set up.
