Kind of, they search for #\\([0-9]+\\) on the current line, and then
from point-min, which will do the wrong thing if youʼre not on the
first line of the bug thread. They also look for an appropriate text
property, but thatʼs not set by 'gnus-read-ephemeral-bug-group'. I can
look at adding that, but if you have a debbugs-gnu list of tagged
bugs, you can visit each of them as a gnus group individually, so Iʼm
not sure itʼs worth the effort.
