For what it's worth: not everyone uses Emacs, and it would be good to
support users who choose to use simpler software.  I guess that it would
be quite easy to modify the software behind 'issues.guix.gnu.org' to
generate HTML that works well with simpler web browsers, so I'd prefer
to keep this bug open.  What do you think?
