Bugzilla is a good example: Most docs regarding autolinkification stated that it's necessary to change Bugzilla's codebase, which is not. You can achieve auto linkification for different viewers by just changing templates of Bugzilla and customizing templates is officially supported in Bugzilla's architecture. Is there any bug tracker supported by SCMBug which doesn't have a flexible template engine and doesn't support customizing those? I wouldn't want SCMBug to patch Bugzilla's core just for autolinkification because that is one more place where you have to maintain compability with Bugzilla's release cycle. Fully supporting Bugzilla 3.4 without the need to apply patches manually is more important, in my mind, and everything that reduces the complexity in the dependency between SCMBug and different bugtracker releases should be welcome. You were always interested in using the official bugtracker api for example and didn't work directly on the database, patching bugtracker's core seems like a contrary solution to me. Maybe the first thing to do is get a list of people who are interested in autolinkification, or already use it, and which software they use as bugtracker and repository viewer? This way we get an idea which software combinations need patches of the used bugtracker core, which just need template changes etc. I use WebSVN 2.1 and Bugzilla 2.22.x and autolinkification is working with template changes.
