The dependency list tries to put as many entries in one line as it can. This becomes a problem when there are plenty of entries, because it pushes the right-hand column too far to the right. [https://landfill.bugzilla.org/prodpatches/show_bug.cgi?id=4728 see here for example].

The goal of including the bug summary in the header of the page is to save some vertical space. Repeating it again in the gray line is a regression. But I can understand you want it here for visibility. Now, links to go to the prev/next/first/last bug are taking too much space and should probably be moved on the same line as other "Action" links, i.e. XML, Format for printing, Last Comment.
 
Having the dependency lists on the left and having the CC list always visible is definitely the right approach (especially when you have a very long list of flags).
 
Links about votes are really not important and should be moved in the "Action" list (with XML, etc...).
 
Note on bug 415 that I reassigned the bug to timeless, who has no real name on b.m.o, and now the assignee field is left blank. If the user has no realname, then his email address should be displayed.
 
Now I strongly disagree to have the keywords, URL and status whiteboard fields at the very top. This looks wrong to me. More important is the block with the assignee + target milestone + severity, and should be moved higher in the page. The status and resolution should be combined with this block.
 
Ancestor, about the dependency lists: it indeed tries to use as much place as possible, but will wrap to avoid the user to scroll horizontally, so this is fine and exactly what we want. If your screen is narrower, it will wrap more often.
 
Nit: please remove the now useless colspan=3 in the right table as the dependency lists have been moved to the left.
