it's very cool stuff that allows you to clean your history nicely.
there are some good tutorials on `git rebase -i`, but if it's your first time,
i would suggest to make a backup first, it
could get confusing if there are merge conflicts during the rebase.

I'ld say: "rtf" in the url (foo.bar/rtf/) and "Releng Testbuild
Feedback" as title on the page. If/when we link to this app from other
pages, we could use "releng testbuild feedback" for the links.
Clear enough imho.
