 Because it is easier to recognize an RT ticket number faster than a
 32 digits/letters token number, that way if some user is spamming my
 xmpp client I can just disable his token by deleting it.

 I never knew about that, I though we kept all email support though RT.

 I can certainly add a comment field.

 Well, I just wanted to make life easier but I can remove it.

 Yes, that's what I though about from the beginning.

 Noted.

 Noted.

 Then I will just make it normal text. The reason I made it a text area
 is that if you triple click the link it will selected for you.

 I will add hours (23 format) and modify the date to be ISO compliant.

 The end result would look like this:
 Created on: 13:55 2014-03-15
 Expires on: 13:55 2014-03-18

 lol, ok. :)

 If I don't get any more comments I will make the changes in 2 days:

  * Remove RT ticket
  * Change <textarea> to normal text
  * Change the date format and add hours (24h format)
  * Remove the edit button since there is no need for it unless we want to
 modify the comment field.
  * Order tokens from newer to older.
  * The last created token will be in bold.
