Paul Jolly noticed that the former offers not just branches but tags
as completion candidates.  Mimic how "branch -d" limits its suggestion
to branch names.

Perhaps a Reported-by: would be appropriate?

Comparing the way I wrote the above, and a bland description of
"this is broken how" plus "Reported-by:", I personally feel the
former gives the credit in a more proper way, but if more people
prefer the more mechanical style, I can adjust.

Here is what I queued.
