Hello,

I made a forum topic as a test case for the proposed feature.

I tried adding the URL of that topic to the 'See Also' field.

Here's the error message that shown up:

--- start ---
https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=31262 is not a valid URL to a
bug. See Also URLs should point to one of:

    show_bug.cgi in a Bugzilla installation.
    A bug on launchpad.net
    An issue on code.google.com.
    A bug on bugs.debian.org.
    An issue in a JIRA installation.
    A ticket in a Trac installation.
    A bug in a MantisBT installation.
    A bug on sourceforge.net.
    An issue on github.com.
--- end ---

As pointed out, the 'See Also' field only accepts URLs to a few bug trackers.
It should really be labeled 'External Bug Reports'.

>From the upstream link above I gather that the 'See Also' field may allow for
non-validated URLs in the future. If they actually implement that feature, then
my proposal could be discarded.

In the current state, it's not possible to put a link to the forum anywhere but
in the comments.

Regards.
