Unnecessary, you can tell the user within the closing comment

Does it hurt though?
It makes it alot easier to update things if necessary. Say for example
we decide not to release a specific version we can easily find all the
relevant bug reports and update the milestone version. Also it will help
reminds developers to even put this information in, compared to the
current state of affairs where the tendency to not note anything.
Finally this information will be a in a fixed location in a fixed
format, compared to in the comments where additional comments can
clutter this information away.
Finally the RM can target any relevant open bugs easily this way and
quickly get to them.
I see only advantages and no real disadvantage.
