I'd like to have an ability to interconnect bugs (this patch fixes this bug,
this bug is related to this other bug, etc.) with automatic closing of
dependents etc.

In SF, I hate that there is no possibility to close a bug with a checkin.
And that SF displays only the full name of an item submitter, but not
commenters.
