But then we won't be solving the problem that some people find the current
syntax confusing.

Replacing BUGCR12345/BUGWK12345 by URLs sound like a good idea. Moving
SKIP/WONTFIX after test names also sound like a good idea. However, they
aren't things people have complained about. On the other hand, people have,
and repeatedly have, complained about delimiters on mailing lists and at
the contributors' meeting.
