That's not a problem, because all Google needs to provide a search result is to have some keywords of that bug, then it will just link to the original source. Besides, Google is very smart at detecting which pages should be indexed frequently. > You are solving the wrong problem.

Taking advantage of an existing resource can't hardly be called "reinventing" something. In fact, someone could say to you that implementing a site specific search is to reinvent something that Google already provides. Someday the semantic-web will come (!) and we will be able to use search engines to do powerful queries. We need an ad-hoc search engine now because that day has arrived and there's no way Google could process all the bug's metadata. Again, this is not reinventing. Someone at mozilla.org has taken a small extra effort to prevent Google from indexing and providing an useful service to the community. Anyway, what's wrong with having choices?
