I had a look whether there are categories, but I didn't found any. Is a 
lot of stuff contained there? (how many issues?)

You mean the "bug tracking ID", yes, this can be used.

This is automatically done by Bugzilla and after all the reason to use 
it ;-)

It doesn't provide threading though, only flat comments. On the other 
side you can structure and link bugs, eg say that one issues blocks 
another or that issues are the same, etc.
