>From the man himself:

Chris Forsythe: it's to keep track of how many tickets are duplicates
Chris Forsythe: and to move them to a single milestone so that they
are out of the way
Chris Forsythe: and also so that end users know that their ticket is a duplicate
Chris Forsythe: i.e. I wanted to prove that the searching mechanism in
trac sucks balls
Chris Forsythe: and that, if someone on the adium team or trac team or
pidgin team worked on just that
Chris Forsythe: that you'd see an x amount reduction of tickets in y time
Chris Forsythe: that's all :)
