Bug#631480: Generate short URLs/links for the standard bug view
Package: debbugs
Severity: wishlist
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi,
most of the time, people are going to look at and to link at URLs like
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=123456
e.g. the plain bug view without any options. This is also what
http://bugs.debian.org/123456
redirects to.
I think it would be much nicer if
a) The redirect is done internal, e.g. http://bugs.debian.org/123456
will stay in the URL line, making it more likely that people will use
that when they want to link to a certain bug.
and maybe even
b) The BTS also generates the short version version everywhere where it
links to a bug without further option.
Not a great deal, but makes the BTS a more aesthetic and slicker place
to be :-)
Greetings,
Joachim
