I have considered that; while it does mean that ninjas spend some time mapping requests to bugs, there are several of them and only one of me. A good chunk of the time, I can remember that something exists without needing to look it up. Sadly, my memory isn't good enough to memorize all the bug numbers. My personality is such that if I started including the bug number some of the time, I'd want to do so all of the time. And that's a whole lot more work. :-)
