That would be downstream, and I'm not sure why we would want to do that.
I can see them wanting to track our bugs, since we are the upstream for
them, but I'm not seeing the value of vice-versa.  I've followed links
to bugs that were initially reported downstream, and that is helpful,
but having the chatter from the downstream bug reflected in our tracker
would probably be more confusing than helpful, especially since downstream
bugs tend to include "system" chatter about the status and disposition
of the bug (just as ours do).

If someone wants to go to the trouble of writing code to try it out,
I wouldn't object to the trial, but it's not an area I'd recommend
someone spend time on.  Also, if upstream changes are required in the
plugin system, it'll have to land there first, so there's not much
point in discussing it here until then.
