Important features
==================
- create tickets from stdin instead of an editor (for automation).
- return errors from the front end (html-stripped) when they reach cartman,
not just in new.
- keep the edited file until we know the delivery is successful, wrap the
whole thing in a diaper and tell the user where to find the temporary file.
- find a way to read comments (tricky because there is nothing that dumps the
comments in their raw format in the default Trac installation).
- find a way to automatically test the whole thing against different versions
of trac (install, venv, commands, repeat?)
- test the output of commands in the test suite.
Lesser features
===============
- add paging to the search command (optional).
- use a better module for HTML parsing (e.g. BeautifulSoup4).
- abstract the text module behind an inheritable class, that will allow
version specific parsing implementations.
- add a modular backend support, could be set to:
- http (current implementation)
- xmlrpc (through the plugin)
- db (direct database access, has to have access to the database)
- direct (use the trac module, has to be on the installation machine)
- create an alias system similar to mercurial::
[alias]
close = status fixed
reopen = status reopen -m
- improve editor handling to allow better test units
- add query support, allowing them to be defined in the config file.
- add curses support to navigate tickets easily.
- write a cartman daemon that will poll a mailbox for new emails and create
tickets from them and later allow to reply to comments, attach files, etc.
- `status` should also return the resolution.
