I'm not yet that familiar with Odd's newhelp branch but I hope we're 
able to include this or some similar solution into 0.12. Forming a 
Documentation team also sounds like a great idea if there is enough 
interest.

This is a great example of a piece of isolated functionality that could 
initially be developed as a plugin both to make development easier and 
to make it usable before (and if) it's later included in trac-core. But 
as long as it's a general report system I think it's a good candidate 
for core inclusion.

Agreed, this an area that has a lot of room for improvement. 
Unfortunately the current db schema and the way our authentication 
systems works makes this nontrivial.
