Comment 3 for bug 244522

This is an interesting problem. Branches are used much less often for distribution bugs than for project bugs, because most distribution packages currently aren't managed in Bazaar. Work on changing that has begun in Intrepid, though it will take a while.

When a bug report does have related branches, however, the list of branches is more important than the comments. So the list goes above the comments, therefore that's where the "Link related branch" link goes even when there aren't related branches.

I have several other changes in progress that will reduce clutter and make Launchpad easier to use on small screens. In one of them, "Link to CVE" will no longer take up a whole vertical line if there are no existing CVE links; that will reduce the distance between the description and the comments.
