Any chance Agilo could integrate with the Trac MasterTicketsPlugin?

http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/MasterTicketsPlugin

The Master Tickets Plugin establishes a simple hierarchy of
dependencies between tickets.  It provides an interface to GraphViz
for a graphical view of the dependencies.

More importantly for me, the Eclipse Mylyn project integrates with the
MasterTicketsPlugin to show task dependencies for Trac tasks within
Eclipse.

I believe all that would be required is to allow customizability of
your internal custom field names for "o_links"  (References) and
"i_links" (Referenced By).

The MasterTicketsPlugin uses the fields "blockedby" and "blocked" to
do essentially the same thing (possibly slightly different semantics,
but I would use them the same way in my project).

The labels can display the same in Agilo, only the internal database
field name would need to change.

Possible defaults in trac.ini:
[agilo-links]
field.incoming_links = i_links
field.outgoing_links = o_links

[ticket-custom]
i_links = text
i_links.label = Referenced By
o_links = text
o_links.label = References

which could be overridden for MasterTickets (and Eclipse/Mylyn)
integration with
[agilo-links]
field.incoming_links = blocking
field.outgoing_links = blockedby

[ticket-custom]
blockedby = text
blockedby.label = References
blocking = text
blocking.label = Referenced By

Does that make sense, and would it be easy to do?

I have also submitted a request for the MasterTicketsPlugin to be
customizable in the field names that it uses.

However, I think that the Eclipse/Mylyn project would also have to
make changes to accommodate the alternate field names, so I believe it
would be easier for Agilo to provide the integration customizability
directly, as described above.

Thanks,

Chris
