Discussing several separate issues in the same bug report is
discouraged because (a) it makes reference to the discussion
problematic in the commit log messages, and (b) it makes the
discussion larger and harder to follow, since people frequently mix
several issues in a single response.
So our conventions when using debbugs is to open a separate bug report
for each issue.
