beaufour#developers: hmmm, what's the new "addl. review" review flag that can be
set on bugs now?
beaufour#developers: mrbkap: that was my guess to, but I was not 100% sure on
the abbreviation
Yeah, I think an <abbr title> might be helpful here, although it won't show up
in IE...

We'd also want to add a style for abbr[title] if we don't have one already, with
a little "border-bottom: 1px dotted black".

Ever confirmed: true
Enclosing it in an <abbr> tag makes sense, but addl wins the Google fight
hands-down, and acronym finder lists it but not addtl:
