Hello John,
are we working for the same company ;-)
I would like to add a few more wishes to your list:
* Ticket System
* attach tickets to revisions and branches in subversion to be able
to query which issues are still open in which branch
* different solutions for issues in different branches
* separation of "milestone" and "target version"
* a concept of a version and the relation between versions
Dirk
