There's "Set track durations" and "Set track durations from discid". I don't know why they have different names and I don't know which is which.

"Edit track name" for example is also a historic edit type, but there's nothing to suggest it is.

The reason that these have the same name is so that they all show up in the edit search when you search for 'merge releases', for example. If I change the name of each edit type with a '(historic)' suffix, this will break the edit search. However, if you're only interested in seeing this in the actual edits and not in the search list, then it could be added programatically for edit display.

Thoughts?

My issue is with the ones that either don't have the same name (first example) or where there is no corresponding current edit type (second example). I don't want to mark the hidden historic types that are grouped with the current equivalents.
