I agree that everything is in one place, but the place is too big.
Currently, we separate out the activity log (with good reason) to
prevent "clutter."  My goal is to be able to give my users a very
concise view of a bug within the first screen-ful in about an 800x600
size frame. Doing that at normal font size would require changes over
what we have now.  I'm referring to the single bug view.
