This doesn't prove anything at all. If you change the URL format then the history will be reset, yes. But that's an one-time event and after the change we will have the new URLs in our history once we visits the bugzilla tickets again. So while that's annoying, it's acceptable. But it's not acceptable to regress the usability of a productivity tool.
