But aren't we talking about users, rather than devs?  Users will either
build from a clone from the main repo, or use an automated build, thus
their reference point will be the Gerrit | master SHA whichever is the most
appropriate name for it.

In any case I don't think this fulfils the initial question.  Previously we
could say to users that an issue was fixed in svn r nnnn and they would
"know" that any rev later than that was good.  I don't understand how they
can "know" that with a SHA of the latest master commit | merge.
