The version number is the version number the fix has been applied to?
Then perhaps it could just default to sending over

emacs-version
=> "24.0.50.6"

if the user doesn't override it?

What does the control message for the version number in debbugs look
like?

Oh, I thought we wanted to differentiate between (for instance)
"notabug,closed" and "fixed,closed"...

Doesn't the same apply to other tags like "notabug"?
