Bug Description

The "#3128" should be converted to a link to the proper bug if this exists.

Bug numbers are linkified if you specify them as "bug 3128" or "bug #3128" or similar (the same as Bugzilla).

I use Trac a lot and never had problems with it.

It would be very convinient if bug numbers written with # prefix in other bugs' comments was linkified.
