The issue with linking is that we may not be using show_bug.cgi (or
'id' in GET) forever. Bug numbers would be feasible to migrate outside
of Bugzilla, and technically a webserver can be used to translate
those URLs, but the important bit of information is the bug number.

I don't know about you guys, but I have a "smart bookmark" in Firefox
where I type "bgo xxxxxx" and it'll take me to the relevant bug. It'd
be trivial to set that up as a bash alias, too. There are tons of ways
to get to a bug; the important part is the bug number. I think putting
the URL in there adds extra work for us later down the road should we
migrate away from Bugzilla.
