I was answering about "Unless they are prominently documented though"
by mentioning the /issue/ part is there when Mumi resolves from
Message-ID to Debbugs-ID.  Well, "prominently" documented when
speaking about Mumi is difficult to evaluate. ;-)  Instead, I notice
Mumi uses it.

And I was asking about the regular expression for
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/65131#msgid-4f7b841a5c1ab6ea0ee22d3bbd2bedab2ed435fa
where bug-reference can extract 65131.

Somehow, I think that the regular expression of bug-reference should
handle https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/12345 in addition to
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/12345.  And bonus for
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/65131#msgid-[:alnum:] :-)

Cheers,
