There are different types of issue listings for a given tag:
(or, more general, search pages)

a) For a specific project (or Drupal core):
http://drupal.org/project/issues/search/drupal?issue_tags=ajax%20upload%...

b) Across projects:
http://drupal.org/project/issues/search?issue_tags=ajax%20upload%20problem
This cross-project list is quite useful to find related issues from different projects.

I see two problems with this:
- There is no way to click on a tag and get to the cross-project list. It would be nice to have such a link. Either the entire tag could link to the cross-project list, or there could be a small additional link next to the tag.
- There is no easy way to jump from the project-specific search page to the cross-project search page. This could be fixed by either making the project name a search parameter, or by having a link next to the breadcrumbs.

In fact this is an example of parallel breadcrumb hierarchies:

          projects
          /      \
  filefield      issues
          \      /
          filefield
           issues

Going "up" could mean go to all issues (across projects), or go to the project page itself.
Well, whatever.

There is no way to click on a tag and get to the cross-project list.

It's enough you go to http://drupal.org/project/issues/search, and enter the tag under Issue tags. If you click on a tag, then you probably get the list of issue tagged with that tag for the project currently visualized.

I know that.
The point of my feature request is that you can easily jump between related issues of different projects, that share a tag.

You read an issue, and see the tags, rendered as links. Now you want to go to the cross-project issue list for one of the tags as fast as possible. You don't want to type http://drupal.org/project/issues/search, and you probably don't have a bookmark. You don't want to type the tag again. You want to be there with one click, or at least two.
