1527459 - Display dependency bugs by type, using the same colour/icon for each

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Attachment: quick mockup

An idea by Sylvestre: Use the new bug type colour coding (red/green/blue) for the bug list on the Depends on and Blocked fields. See the attached quick mockup. It can actually be used everywhere.

By the way, as :philipp mentioned on IRC, red and green look similar for people with colour blindness. The label on the bug header is fine (I’ll tweak the green colour as per his feedback anyway) but small dots like my mockup posted above will be a problem. These indicators should come with distinguishable icons like Jira. (We are coincidentally using the same red/green/blue coding)

An idea brought by Sylvestre: bug list fields including Depends on could be categorized by type like this mockup. This is particularly useful on meta bugs having a bunch of blockers like Bug 635134.
