longlist urls should be portable, preferably in some get format.
Priority: -- → P4
Target Milestone: --- → Bugzilla 2.20
Ummh, what does portability mean in this context? Simply that the url would contain the query? Is there any reason why hitting the longlist button shouldn't be submitted as a get rather than a post? Would that fix this issue?
We can't use a GET, because the resulting url ends up too long if there are more than just a few bugs.
Ok. Three thoughts. 1. to allow people to pass around a longlist document and have it regenerate a similar list, we could provide a button 'refresh list' which resubmits the query that was used to generate the list to longlist. 2. why can't longlist behave like bug_list and take a query as input? 3. the symptom i experienced was that the comment references were totally useless which could be fixed by making long list comment references prefix show_bug.cgi?id=<> to the hash ref.
