Comment 3 for bug 894736

Thanks for that analysis Bryce.

Clicking an item to narrow the scope of the existing search is an interesting idea.

It's out of scope for this project, though. It'd be part of a future "Improve advanced bug search" project and Aaron's rough estimate is that we're looking at a minimum of a week's work.

We could do it cheaply, I suppose: if someone is shown as the reporter of a bug, click their name and it opens a new tab with all the bugs they've reported. I'm not sure how useful that'd be. The one thing I want to know, when seeing someone's name in a bug listing, is who they are.

So, we can do some research into what people want from links on those milestone, person and other names in listings and make that a longer-term aim.

In the short-term, we can easily link those names (person/team, milestone, project/package) so that it opens the relevant overview page.

I'm leaving this bug as "Low" while we work out how we might want to fix it.
