Out of curiosity, what do you think is overloaded with it? I believe
the ticket system can be fairly easily customized using a template.
Should be a lot easier than to completely rewrite the ticket system,
don't you think? :)

Not re-using someone else's solution just because it doesn't do exactly
the last 10% the way you want them to be done, and roll your own stuff,
is generally a bad idea. There is a *lot* of active development going
on with Trac, and there are quite a lot more active devs. Oh, NIH is
the real term for it.
