Yes. If desired, I could create a tracking bug for 31.1, and adjust the
debbugs package to use it as reference.

While we're at it: such hand-generated list would profit from referring
to bugs like 'bug#80903' (w/o quoting). With a proper config, we could
follow those markers to the Debbugs web page or in the debbugs package,
with a mouse click.

For example, my Gnus setup does it. And it should be possible for other
mail packages as well.

See (info "(debbugs-ug) Minor Mode") for the Gnus setup.
