Well, I’ve never used ’usertag’ so I do not know.  Let me share some of
my tweaks I did when chasing old bugs. :-)

My main entry-point is Emacs+Notmuch.  For messages older than some
weeks, I press C [1] which checks the Debbugs instance via debbugs.el
helpers and inform me in the message echo bar about the status of the
issue.

If I do not have the all thread because it started before my initial
fetch, then I press b [2] and it open debbugs.el i.e., GNUS and co.  If
the thread is long – more than 2-3 messages – then I press I [3] with
piem.el stuff here [4]: it imports using public-inbox all the thread to
my local inbox.

Well, bug-reference-mode should also do part of the job but I just
discovered yesterday. ;-)

Last, I have some org-capture template to reminder later.


That’s said, when I do triage, I run M-x debbugs-gnu and load **all**
the current open issues.  I have hl-line-mode on to please my eyes.
Then I navigate, open, read, import or not, and for some, I press C in
order to apply a control (easy, done, etc.).

When I reply (rebind to press R) and because I often do triage of old
reports, it copy the URL of the current message in the kill-ring so then
when asking about the status, I can easily paste as a quick jump
reminder.

Well, this workflow is probably not the best but it’s mine. :-)  And it
allowed me to play games of who hunt the most? ;-)

Ah last, I capture this kind of message information from Emacs+Notmuch
just by pressing cw [7] and then just paste.

I do not know.  Well, I do not use much reviewed-looks-good myself. )-:


HTH.
