Thanks for bringing this up MZ. I completely agree with you. The amount of times I've had to link people on irc to a comment to see it is ridiculous.
I'm not sure what the exact solution is but I feel we need to improve it in gerrit itself rather than move to bugzilla.

Hi.
I'm concerned that Gerrit actively discourages discussion currently. I see a few issues:
- auto-collapsing all comments except the most recent;
- no reply feature or support for quoting (similar to what Bugzilla uses);
and
- the "add comment" feature doesn't allow you to write a comment while
viewing the code or viewing the other comments, resulting in an awful workflow for me when attempting to write a comment.
Is there some way to address these issues? Would it make sense to move all discussion back to Bugzilla? Is there some way to adjust Gerrit's behavior here? Or perhaps I'm the only one who finds this problematic.
