Description Jan Beich freebsd_committer

To prevent folks from abusing URL field like in bug 211154 external bug/review references should be specified via See Also field. This would make it possible to have more than one reference as well.

I specifically abused it to test how the URL field behaved (and reported it upstream), but also because there two reviews for the same issue and See Also currently supports a limited number of external issue trackers, as you note.

We have spoken with upstream (Bugzilla) and they indicate that See Also: should be opened to support any URL in a future version.

Upstream issue is still not resolved, so until we receive fix with Bugzilla 6.0 I added  support for following bugtrackers: NetBSD GNATS, DragonFlyBSD redmine, Chromium issue tracker, and Bitbucket. It was implemented as an extension so the change is relatively low-intrusive and can be disabled when issue fixed in mainline.
