Both of these comments are very much appreciated.  Do we say
something to encourage these in our developer-facing documentation?

The points to stress are:

 - If you are not building directly on top of the recent tip of
   'master', mention what topics that are not yet in 'master' your
   patches depend on.

 - If your series is a part of a larger effort, briefly describe
   what your overall direction and grand vision is, and state where
   in that grand picture the current series fits.

 - If you have a short one-line summary for the topic to be used as
   a topic branch name in mind, do suggest it.

Thanks.
