We don't have a well-defined knowledge base with permanent links which would 
have been better.  The use of JBS ids, even resolved ones, might be the next 
best thing because these ids are:

- more or less permanent (except for RT-...)
- are easily grep'pable
- point to a place that has description of the problem and the link to PR and 
maybe some discussion
- directly observable (as opposed to git commit history)
- cannot be masked by refactoring or merge (unlike git commit history)
