 **SUMMARY**
 When a "nice big round number", like #1000, #5000, #42, etc. is
 approaching in the trac system of assigning bug numbers, this number
 should be used for a "novelty ticket"

 **STEPS TO REPRODUCE**
 1. Wait approximately a year and a half for the next "nice big round
 number" to come around. By my calculations this should be ticket #2000.
 2. Have Thibault file ticket #1999.
 3. Wait for Thibault to NOT notice that the next ticket is a "nice big
 round number".
 4. Wait for Eloy to suggest to a user on the mailing list that they should
 file a ticket, also NOT noticing that the next ticket is a "nice big round
 number".
 5. Wait for said user to file a ticket and ACTUALLY notice that said
 ticket is a "nice big round number", but still file a "real" ticket.

 **REGRESSION**
 This has been happening since ticket #1000.

 **NOTES**
 It seems that when this bug occurs, Matt is inclined to make half-hearted
 and mostly-unfunny jokes about the situation. Hopefully, if the original
 issue is fixed then this other issue will disappear as well. If not, we
 may need a separate issue for Matt's jokes.
