I think Dscho's point is that you shouldn't be generating these links that
lead to nowhere ;-).

It would really be nice if we can maintain an exterenal database that
links mailing list discussion threads and individual commits, and have
gitweb and other visualization tools to make use of that information.

I do not care what storage mechanism that external database uses.  It
could use notes or it could just be a BDB that can be indexed with commit
object names.
