Set current and next-minor-version, next-major-version aliases in
BZ
Dear BZ admins --
Is there some way to associate "aliases" with actual field values in BZ?
I'm thinking it would be useful to have alias assignments for
"Version", such as:
* "current" alias to be used for 4.1.1 (I see we already have used
"current" for Version, but I don't know if this is a hard assignment or
what).
* "next-minor-version" alias to be used for 4.1.2
* "next-major-versoin" alias to be used for 4.2.0
This would be very useful to track bugs for next releases, etc.

Thanks for the response even though it's not what I would have liked.
I will put in a request for this. Meanwhile, I will try to get more
creative.

Bugzilla currently doesn't know the concept of version- or milestone
aliases. It's a good idea though. I suggest to submit it to them [1].
Bugzilla already supports name aliases for bug-ids, so extending this to
other fields makes a lot of sense.
