It would be great to use webkit-bot to revert a revert and have it restore the original commit message with an annotation that this is a re-land.
As it is now if I ask webkit-bot to revert a revert it treats it like any other revert (giving it a REGRESSION title and the rest of it.) For example I reverted 262331@main (https://commits.webkit.org/262331@main) in 262370@main (https://commits.webkit.org/262370@main) and then re-landed in 262429@main (https://commits.webkit.org/262429@main) which only refers to the original commit because I asked the bot to say this is a re-land.
I could manually do the work to re-land in a manual PR but webkit-bot is very convenient for these mechanical tasks and so it would be nice to have it restore the commit message in these situations.
A secondary but related goal would be to commit with the original author's information as well so we don't have commits to the repo from "Commit-Queue" in these situations.

Off-topic but I had no idea bugzilla created links from commit IDs automatically - nice!
