Rewriting the history means we *do* get clickable links for anyone
that wants them, as a distinctive string like "bpo-12345" is amenable
to automated conversion into a hyperlink via a client side script in
GreaseMonkey or similar.

You can't readily do that with "#12345" or even "Issue #12345" because
they're too generic.

Cheers,
Nick.
