Ah, right. Trouble is that Tracs will still linkify #xxxx as link to a
local ticket, so that won't help either. Maybe the simplest thing to
do would be to include the bug URL in the "Foo added the following
comment..." text, so rather than saying "... to Launchpad bug #..." it
would say "to https://launchpad.net/bugs/..."

However, that doesn't seem a very nice way to do it either (and the
URL's already in the comment footer, which seems like a nicer place
for it to go.

I'm open to suggestions about how the pushed comments should best be
formatted to avoid this problem, but maybe it will need to be
something that needs to be fixed in the plugins (trac-launchpad and
bugzilla-launchpad) and in Bugzilla 3.4, too.
