820226 - product/component line in email notifications a bit confusing

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Cameron McCormack (:heycam)]

I just got a bugmail that included the line:

  Product | Component: Core | Widget: Cocoa

It took me a bit to parse this.  I am not sure I have a good replacement suggestion.  Maybe either:

  Product: Core
  Component: Widget: Cocoa

or

  Product | Component
  Core | Widget: Cocoa

or

  Product & Component: Core | Widget: Cocoa

Sorry for lack of better suggestions.

fwiw. The format of his line is what causes firebot to run into problems, since it matches exactly the format of the Changed table.

mozbot treats lines that look like this:
field| from | to
as part of that table, and since Product matches a valid field name.

So if this format gets changed, avoiding the dual pipes or using a label that isn't an field name would be good.
