Please be careful if a text box is used about stomping on editing commands. E.g. I have my Chromium set up to do Emacs key navigation which I really want to keep. The above doesn't sound like it would interfere, so just something to keep in mind. >If these are not all available on the first iteration, thats totally fine, >but at least the [tab] key and being able to edit them all at once would >be needed otherwise it will be more of a burden to use this system than >the current whiteboard based one. > >It would be nice if these were batched up in the same way as bug statuses >are, where a bit of thrashing on the status field in 15 or 20 seconds >just results in one email. A couple of other thing that would be really great: * shortcut (key, menu, etc) for toggling between work item states * links to bug (e.g. chooser perhaps, hyperlink LP: #12345, maybe even a short summary of key bug infos). * History of revisions w/diffs (a la Moin style) >Thanks for working on this LP team!
