When I e.g. see what kind of bloat push Debian bugtrackers into upstream bugzillas, the useful information there is hidden in tons of email headers for every comment, tons of previous comments duplicated (many times; reply to with stuff not being trimmed to a minimum, reply to reply to reply to reply), etc. So perhaps better is just to add to the upstream bz a link to the downstream bugzilla, with optional comment or something, not duplicating everything from the downstream bugzilla.
