The YYYM-MM-DD would have been quite compact.

The link at the and "Toggle all extra information" unfortunately does
not present the information in optimal manner. E.g. the date is
diffifult to discern fast reading. It is also problem non-eglish
people; I can never recall by sure which month in english comes before
each one.

May I suggest that the "Toggle all extra information" would be
be improved a little:

  [NOW]
  Reported by: Wichert Akkerman <wich...@wiggy.net>; Date: Wed, 21
  Jan 2004 11:33:06 UTC; Severity: minor; Found in version 1.4.3-1;
  Forwarded to cpu-us...@lists.sourceforge.net;

  [SUGGESTED]
  Date: 2004-01-21 11:33:06 UTC; Found in version 1.4.3-1; Severity: minor;
  Reported by: Wichert Akkerman <wich...@wiggy.net>; Forwarded to 
cpu-us...@lists.sourceforge.net;

Motivation:

- Date first, evenly spaced (ISO 8601) for fast reading.
- First line contains the bug numeric/severity "data"
- Following line: the contact details

By uing each line to its own purpose helps reading multiple bug items
easily in a glimpse (eyes can find "hot spots").
