We're using JIRA 6.0.5. When I click the icon that says "A permanent link to a comment" that's displayed to the upper right of every comment I see this behavior (FF, Chrome and IE 10):

      1) My browser follows the link, showing the issue and highlighting the comment

      2) The URL shows the full link, but 200 msec later, the URL shortens to just show the issue ID.

      In previous versions (e.g. JIRA 5.1.8.) when I clicked the icon that says "A permanent link to a comment" JIRA created a permanent link to the comment, which included the comment id in the URL.

      I assume this is a kind of regression bug.

      Cheers
      Kai

            I actually think, this is a regression bug too and if it was desired change not to focus referenced comment than what is the point to linking comments at all?

            Some of our issues they have lot's of comments, and in such it is impossible to which comment someone else is referring to, also jumping on top of the Jira issue, is not very helpful.

            It used to behave well, but not anymore.
