[TYPO3-dev] Ending usage of the Pending Documentation page

Ah I understand now. Yes that would be convenient, but we have a kind of 
chicken and egg problem: the documentation issue should not exist before 
the patch is committed, because there's nothing to document if it gets 
ignored or rejected.

So the workflow would have to be the following:
- create your patch and submit it
- get ready with documentation changes but don't do anything right away
- when the change is ready for merging, open the documentation issue and 
amend the commit message to reference it.

I think it's a bit too complicated. Other ideas? Otherwise I would stick 
to waiting for the switch to reST and link the submissions together 
using the topic (like some, but not all, do when submitting a patch for 
several branches).

Cheers
