Hi

FF4 betas have had this for a while:
 * http://blog.mozilla.com/files/2010/07/feedback-button.png
 * http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/happy
 * http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/sad

Primary Trac user feedback I believe is t.e.o ticket system (http://
trac.edgewall.org/wiki/HowToContribute#UserFeedback).

Since tickets by their nature are for reporting problems (hint: there
is no ticket type "i'm happy"), I see a place for a feedback system
that would better enable developers to provide product excellence.

Wrap-up:
 * tickets are primarily feedback from "sad" users
 * "happy" users don't have a clear accessible, low-entry-barrier
medium to express themselves
 * tickets are high entry barrier even for "sad" experiences
 * trac-users google group is also non-comparable to for example the
simple FF feedback system demonstrated above
 * irc stuff often goes unnoticed and data is nearly impossible to
normalize, probably a very lowish percentage of user base represented

So I would propose that a copy of FF4-style low-barrier feedback
system be implemented for Trac core. Perhaps it's only the frontend
that's need implementation and we could use (Mozilla's?) backend, but
I don't foresee a big workload even for making a custom integrated
backend for this.

It would probably make sense for me to copy this to t.e.o Proposals
wiki as well. Searched t.e.o. Tickets, Wiki for "feedback system",
"feedback module", "feedback plugin"  - no hits.

Thoughts welcome.
