I agree with Richard, especially with regards to js-mode.

Merging the contrib/lisp/org-jira.el with the new org-jira.el might be
a good idea
if the contrib one is just implementing a jira link.

We use Jira at my work, so when I get back to the office I plan to try out both
and see what may work.

This will be great for keeping track of issues.  I already use Emacs
to edit the confluence
wiki that we have, now I can do the same with Jira issues as well.
