The information isn't already present. That is the problem. Please do
not be fooled by the ridiculous suggestion that people should, "view

We started down this path of hacking together our infrastructure based

(commit fest pages, searching for msgid via the archive search box etc).
The msgid has basically become the community PRIMARY KEY :P
