Michael,

you seem to be making very strange points here. I have a saved
query in Trac for all the components that I maintain, which is bookmarked
in my browser, and once a week, I click "Alt-F2", type "Boost Trac", and
examine those tickets without seeing anything I don't care about.
Is there a reason you think this approach won't work for everybody? Like,
is there a web browser that lacks bookmarks functionality?
