i oppose the URL.  It is quite bulky.  My idea was to make cvsweb to detect the strings "issue <number>" and "issue<number>" and automatically turn those into hyperlinks to bugs.dragonflybsd.org.

The PR:, Fixes:, Issue:, or Bug-ID: then is no formalized part for autoprocessing ("issue999" is already the formalized part), but just makes it somehow uniform with Reported-by: etc.
