        I'm with you. But it's a feature that you don't miss while using OTRS, 
as the app 
takes care of data integrity and, in my experience, usually you don't need to 
modify the 
DB directly.

        Writing as I think (and about something I don't really know ;), OTRS 
was 
developed initially for MySQL and maybe MySQL don't support (or didn't in the 
past) 
that feature.

        If I remember correctly, there's one way... let me find it... Yes, it's 
called 
"CustomerPanelOwnSelection". It's something like:

    # CustomerPanelOwnSelection
    # (If this is in use, "just this selection is valid" for the
CustomMessage.)
    $Self->{CustomerPanelOwnSelection} = {
        # Queue => Frontend-Name
        'CustQueue' => 'This queue is for you!',
    };

This will only show the CustQueue in customers frontend named as "This queue is 
for 
you!"
