Reporting bugs for fedora packages is the same process for every fedora package, so that doesn't have to be documented seperately. Upstream bug trackers aren't tracked/documented in fedora (.specs) yet, however. That's the reason why I think providing links to upstream trackers adds value, whereas linking to a fedora component in rhbz / fedora bug list for a package doesn't.
