That's my feeling too. "Commiting" bug information in the tree is only
half of a good idea. You want to be able to say, after the fact, "This
commit had bug XYZ". OTOH, the idea (followed by bugs everywhere) that
merging a branch would automatically close bugs fixed by this branch
is a really cool thing.

The kind of information you're mentionning above can be a great
starting point for "bisect". I can even imagine a kind of distributed
bisect, where several users could give their "bad commits" for the
same bug.
