Subject: Revision tagging: use cases needed

We're getting to a point where we need to be able to flag specific
revisions as generated via specific tools. For example if we generate
edits via AFT call-to-actions we want to measure:
• their volume (compared to regular edits)
• their survival/revert rate
The same request is now emerging from the Article Creation Workflow
team, and having talked to many of you it sounds like community, mobile
and other engineering teams would benefit from the ability of saying:
"revision N was created with tool X [version Y]"
I started capturing some use cases on this etherpad:

I'd like to have your input to start building requirements and
evaluating possible solutions. Let me know off list if you have any
question/concern
Dario
