This also allows you to immediately see the list of linked MR’s and issues right in the conversation, as well as being able to link code snippets. One gripe however is that the issue becomes monolithic with multiple conversation threads (as you can see the CI error issue is a totally unstructured Smörgåsbord). To keep a more structured overview we should have multiple issues that are linked together.
