Yeah, the digestification is good, and I hope it continues. But it's
also good to be able to refer back to the original thread in it's
entirety. My thought was to make the TODO item itself a link to the
search (or ideally the thread itself). The advantage of just linking to
the search is that would allow a clever CGI to just parse through the
TODO and linkify the TODO items.
