Nice idea. I really second that, yet I think some means to point the user to
the specific ticket in the package page is really welcome, as finding this
kind of stuff in bugtrackers tend to be hard IMHO. If dev comments are not
welcome, at least some kind of pointing to a specific ML-thread/forum
post/flyspray entry/etc would be nice.
