Paranoid question: is it ok to mark bug-reference-url-format safe if a
string? The worse that could happen is that if you enable
bug-reference-mode and click a bug link, you get taken to some dodgy
URL.

If not, the default could be
"http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=%s", for
our own selfish purposes. :)

I think so.  Of course, someone could put a value like
"http://bigbrother.com/I/m/watching/you/redirect?%s", but since it's
only used if you click on bug-numbers in that buffer, it seems the
consequences wouldn't be all that terrible.
