* why do we need to track dependencies?

You mean dependencies between bugs? So that a developer can easily get all related bugs when he is working on a specific one.
If, for example, one component gets input from another one, but crashes all the time this would be bug #1. If that other component now sends incorrect data, that would be bug #2.
The developer would first fix bug #1 because crashing is not an option, and then he would continue and fix bug #2.
Since those are two different components, it would be hard to track their dependencies in another way, or easily get them via searching.

Why would adding a comment not work? Often this needs further explanation, anyway.

* external Bugzilla references??...

Didn't see that field.

It's above "Bug Status Change". To me, this is another prove of its bad interface. You did not even *notice* it because it's over-bloated and the human brain just switches off when it sees too much information (and I notice this myself, very often, too).

Bye,
Waldemar
