Comment:

 Currently, the plugins trac ticketing system is not actually used for
 plugin bug-reports and patch submissions. It's there, but really, nobody
 ever really used it and I'd guess that it's likely that we'll simply wipe
 it and delete all those tickets.

 We really only use the plugins.trac as a convienent way to look at the SVN
 for diffs and the like. There's no point in adding a "new ticket" link
 when we don't really want people adding new tickets there where plugin
 authors will never actually see them.

 By and large, the plugin SVN is not meant for development and
 collaboration. It's a release repository. Yes, you can do development on
 it, but most people prefer to collaborate on systems like github, and then
 push only the final release versions to the SVN for deployment to the
 directory.
