Ticket types, default description and TracTicketTemplatePlugin

[Martin]

Dears,

when I click on a ticket type in the admin menu of Trac 1.6, e.g.

https://my-trac-server/admin/ticket/type/my-ticket-type

there is a description field. However, I'm not sure, if/where this
field is used.

I had assumed, that this description is used as default description
for the ticket, but it is
not. With TicketTemplatePlugin it's possible, i.e. the feature is not
missing, but I wonder, why
the description in exists in the first place in /admin/ticket/type/...

TIA & Cheers

PS: I'm going to package trac-tickettemplate for Debian:

I am not the author of the plugin.
See https://trac-hacks.org/browser/tractickettemplateplugin/1.0/setup.py?marks=47-48#L47

The URL of the plugin in thee Debian bug report is incorrect.
Correct URL: https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracTicketTemplatePlugin

Thanks for the corrections!
I will use the corrected information in the package itself.
