Comment (by robatino):

 It's not a question of difficulty - it's easy to do, what I'm concerned
 about is that it will make it more difficult for people to find other
 information in the announcement. A link takes up a fixed amount of space,
 so if everything is a link, then a specific link will always be two-thirds
 of the way through the announcement, say, and it's easy to find. Once I
 start replacing links with copied/pasted content, that's no longer true.
 I'm worried that we'll start seeing other tickets asking for *their* info
 to be copied and pasted in, since the existing copied/pasted content makes
 their links hard to find. Eventually the announcement may get so long that
 someone will submit a ticket asking for most of this content to be
 replaced by links again. Lather, rinse, repeat.
