commit message validation, or template commit form?

Hi,

I keep forgetting to supply some vital information, e.g. bug id references,
in my commit messages.

Is there a way to plug in some validation code for the commit message, e.g.
some formal check whether a bug id was referenced?  I'm not after a bullet
proof solution that validates ticket numbers, checks whether they are
assigned to me etc., a simple syntactical check of the message would be
sufficient.

Acutally it would even help if hg commit (or qct, for that matter ;-) )
could present me with a default "fill in the blanks" kind of form when I
commit.

Does anyone have a feature or extension like this already?
