Trac permissions are set independently to Apache "htpasswd" users, but 
if the username matches up, permission is granted. Just take away Trac 
permission for "Anonymous" to open tickets or edit pages, and it then 
forces somebody to have successfully logged in via HTTP basic auth.

It means somebody will have to maintain the htpasswd file, or maybe 
implement an automated signup procedure (with a captcha). I don't think 
the spambots will brute force a valid Apache username/password.

Look at how FreeSWITCH do it - you can't even access Trac without a 
username. Maybe a little bit extreme, but it is possible to configure 
Trac to offer read-only access to unauthenticated users.
