New submission from Chris Jerdonek:

It seems like the entries on the "log" page don't always link to the corresponding revision:

http://hg.python.org/cpython/shortlog

This seems to happen when the revision description itself begins with text that results in a link to something else (e.g. an issue number).

In contrast, the "graph" page seems always to link to the revision:

http://hg.python.org/cpython/graph

Related to this, if the description field contains text that results in a link to something else, then the UI doesn't make a distinction between the portion of the description that links to the revision and the portion that links to the something else.

For example, with description text "Fix for fcc629208842", "Fix for" links to the revision, but "fcc629208842" links to the named revision.

It might be better if the revision link was separate from the description.  That would be one way to address both of the issues above.
