How can we, the plugin developers, keep track of related tickets? Third-party plugins are not components in trac, and newly opened tickets are not immediately assigned to their developers.
I can search, if I remember to do that. (Okay, maybe I will, but think "Joe Average Plugin Developer" here, he's working hard for free and he can't even figure out who's trying to talk to him...)
