Comment (by krichter):

 > I created "Tor Browser alpha" and "Tor Browser stable". I am not
 convinced yet that we need something more fine-grained.
 The idea is to separate the metadata from the ticket full text. If you
 agree with that, then adding trac version for each version of the software
 is necessary, otherwise it might even be non-constructive to let the
 reporter specify a non-constant value ("alpha", "stable") because the
 metadata is not only lost, but even errornous/misleading after a new
 release.

 The thing about trac/the configuration of trac.torproject.org is that the
 availability of version values doesn't reflect the component (i.e. I don't
 need to see versions which don't apply to the selected component). -> Can
 you clarify whether this is a trac issue or a configuration issue, please?
 -> then I'd file a ticket for changing the issues described in this
 paragraph (as an issue of trac or an issue of this instance) and leave
 this issue open to change to (automatically generated) constant version
 numbers for the tor browser (and potentially a lot of other components)
 after the prerequisites are fulfilled.
