Ok; I know they were planning that feature. Not sure if that's been abandoned, or just not deployed yet.

Matthew, thank you for your comments. Turns out your first one isn't correct; I had to register an account; neither my former Bugzilla credentials nor my wikimedia-project credentials worked there.

I suspect linking will be done with a phabricator: prefix. I've looked at the beta version, and it seems easy enough to report bugs, and seems like an improvement on the old system.

Quim, can you point me to a well-written, useful page that describes the steps needed to report a bug in Phabricator? This needs to include the steps to register an account (assuming that is necessary) all the way through to how to link to the bug on the WM wiki where it may be being discussed.

As there is going to be larger range of tools, do we see some of these being available to the community outside of the development realm?
This intro in the http://fab.wmflabs.org homepage answers to your questions, and it will be kept in the Wikimedia Phabricator instance in production:
Getting Things Done
Wikimedia Phabricator is a collaboration platform to plan projects, complete tasks, and solve problems. Building better open source software is our primary purpose. Non-technical projects are welcome as well.
So yes, the door is open, and technically there is nothing stopping to non-technical teams to request a Phabricator project already now. However, currently we are not pitching this idea strongly because we expect enough... entropy with the huge wave of Bugzilla users that will come at once by Day 1. We'd rather let these tech users smooth the path for the rest.
Conclusion: let's focus first in making sure that Phabricator works as a replacement of Bugzilla, a goal that undoubtedly will help non-technical users and projects in the near future.
