I think there's agreement that:
 * Type::* should be made plain labels.
 * Patch::* must stay scoped.

I can do the renaming of Type::* if nobody objects.

What about:
 * Needs::* (currently design, evidence, policy); and
 * Status::*
?
We can of course leave them as-is (for now), but I thought I'd just
bring this up.
