      TODOs aren't considered the style correct way of leaving a piece of work for a future ticket. The preferred mechanism is FIXME-WT-0000 which is also checked a script so tickets can't be merged without cleaning up their respective FIXME comment. Review of FIXME tickets is work defined in WT-10454.

      Despite TODO not being stylistic we have around ~230 TODOs in the codebase. We should consider removing, or replacing with FIXMEs and an associated ticket. Given then number I would suggest doing N at a time and then creating a follow on ticket.

      Scope:

      • Review N TODO comments and either: remove the TODO, enact the TODO, or replace with a FIXME.
