Also true. Keywords take keystrokes though. With this extension you only need to (1) select the bug number/package etc, and (2) click on the button (middle-click for new tab). With a keyword you have to add to that typing "bts ", possibly removing # or : or , around the bug number, and pressing enter (or shift-enter for new tab). The price is some screen estate (32×32 pixels), yes. The package is already in the archive, so cheers! dam, upstream author
