--- Comment #4 from Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio at earthlink.net> ---
"See also" would be the logical place to put forum links, but my impression
from bug 34256 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=577847 is that
at present that field by design only accepts a limited number of URLs, ones
that have been deemed acceptable upstream. 

The problem with putting the links in a comment is that they are easily
overlooked, especially in bugs with lots of comments. 

I'm not entirely convinced that enough bugs have active user discussions on the
forum to warrant a custom field in bugzilla. OTOH, adding the field might make
it somewhat easier to move user chatter out of bugzilla and back to the forum
where it belongs. So I guess you can put me in the "can't hurt/might be worth a
try" camp.
