A few ideas and suggestions:

* You should make your tool a proper Bugzilla Extension:
  http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/tip/en/html/api/Bugzilla/Extension.html

  There is a template hook called "after_custom_fields" which would be
  perfect for you to add your new UI to the bug edit screen. This would
  mean your extension would work with more than one version of Bugzilla.

* You should use Template Toolkit and the template system to produce
  any HTML you need, rather than using print() statements as now.

* Instead of loading the data via jquery, you could use code hooks to
  prepare it when a page was being viewed, and then just access it
  directly through template variables in the edit.html.tmpl template.

The general idea of your tool looks great, though :-)
