HTML emails for review requests from MozReview look something like the following:

---

Ed Morley [:edmorley] <emorley@mozilla.com> has asked Gregory Szorc [:gps]
<gps@mozilla.com> for review:
Bug 980986: qimportbz incorrectly prompts to overwrite patch if filename on bug
was equal to the bug number
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=980986

Attachment 8577204 [details]: MozReview Request: bz://980986/edmorley
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=8577204&action=edit

---

If I click the link to the attachment, I get the attachment edit page on Bugzilla.

I'd like for the email to contain a link to the MozReview URL for the review request.
Multiple people told me today that this is a papercut and the necessity for following multiple links is pretty annoying. Can we get this prioritized?

This is a problem with Bugzilla's flagmail.  We submit a comment containing a link (admittedly a little obfuscated, to the attachment itself, which redirects to the review request), which generates bugmail, but this comment is not included in the separate "review requested" flagmail.

The "easy" fix is to include a link to the attachment in addition to (or maybe even instead of) the edit link.  A better fix would be to include a comment and clearly put the link to the review request in there.  I'll talk to the bmo team.
