Kind of and quite close to my wishing.
And indeed the consolidated ticket that we are talking about, it looks better 
[1] 
in bugzilla than Track.

Although the bugzilla future (meta bugs),it looks more like a "bug-chain";Bugs 
that depends to each other with various and sometimes very powerful ways 
(I played a bit with it and indeed looks impressing).

[parenthesis]
I thought that this bugzilla feature,could be useful at least for BLFS.
Instead of creating a different bug for every new release or for a vulnerability
of the "x" package,we could create just *one* main bug for the "x" package and 
use 
this feature to link to other bugs from that same package,let's say:
#1 curl
   #100 7.15.3
   #200 7.16.1
            #300 exploit to libculr  7.16.1.
   #400 7.17
[/parenthesis]    

What I was talking about however,it wasn't some kind of dependency tree with 
external 
links to bugs/tickets (which sometimes can look like a labyrinth)...
but rather like: Bugs/tickets *into* one main/root bug/ticket.
Simple,easy and elegant.

But thanks for pointing out that to me.
I was thinking the other day for a bug tracking system that I could
suggest to a local organization and bugzilla is one choice I have to
check,although track looks more simple.
