Don't we have the same issue with debbugs and mailing lists? At the moment we put links to bugs.gnu.org, emacs-devel, help-gnu-emacs, as well as the bug trackers and mailing lists of various other projets, when relevant). Here we would put links to pull request numbers, likely prefixed with some identifier; maybe something like gitlab:57?

That's not how it works: comments are attached to code fragments, like in a patch, so they don't go away if the branch is deleted. Just like patches sent by email.

I expect we would self-host, like debian and gnome do with gitlab, right? So if we decided to discontinue the service (i.e. migrate to another platform) we would need to migrate our issues as well.

Definitely: that's why we imported old history when we migrated to git. Same for bug tracking or pull requests: if we move to a different service, we'd want to export them.
