Yes - we won't be actually changing the state of the bug (RT doesn't  
have enough metadata to know whether a bug is fixed from a push to  
'master, or whether it also needs a pullup. It also doesn't have a  
state that's FIXED, but not VERIFIED).

What you'll get is something like the following. When a new patchset  
appears, RT will be emailed a message (to be sent on to the ticket  
requestor) like:
"A patch marked as addressing this issue on <branch> has been uploaded  
to gerrit.
  Please visit http://gerrit.openafs.org/<blah> and review this change"

When a patchset gets pushed to the branch:
"A patch fixing this bug has been pushed to <branch>."

Suggestions for better wording are, as always, welcome!
