A wiki system is missing with Bugzilla, compared to Trac. I think it is very important to include this wiki module into Bugzilla as fast as possible, as Trac is slowly taking over bugzilla only for that reason.

Please see an advice of some expert developpers about the fact that Trac takes over bugzilla lately and why:

I don't think it's fair to say this bug is a duplicate of bug#102685 since with bug#102685 the main concern is to "Link twiki names to a twiki installation in comments". I think what Daniel is expressing is that the full wiki support for each comment like what the Trac project is what he wants.

Personally I think it's a valid request to want inline formatting for comments just as we have with many discussion forums or wiki based sites. This would allow better representation of example code snippets as well as things like lists and tables which are basic needs in most comments.

As an example check out the Trac demo site.
