Details

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #385613 +++ Frequently, one has a list of bug numbers which contain the word "bug" before every bug number - such as in a table on wiki.mozilla.org. And I want to see them as a bug list. But https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi?format=advanced&short_desc= only accepts numeric comma-separated lists
I see no reason to accept that. "bug" can be used as an alias, "bug" only works in english but not in other languages. And then someone is going to also ask to parse "bugs 1, 2 and 3" correctly.

I see your point about "bug" working only in english. But is there not a string used in bugzilla that is already localized to the user's installation? And your example of "bugs 1, 2 and 3" is trivial to correct. My use case, a list such as ... bug 129393 bug 528044 bug 184490 bug 654744 bug 402594 bug 539468 ... is less trivial
