The link should probably be setup from the bugzilla side instead of
from the AppDB side. I.e., you could have a field on the bug that gets
filled with AppDB application IDs. Adding such a field and querying it
from the AppDB shouldn't be particularly hard, but what may be harder
is looking up the application IDs in a convenient way when entering
the bug, and perhaps displaying them in a nice way when viewing the
bug.
