patchwork and bug tracking

I'm not intending to turn it into a bug tracking system itself - there 
are existing bug trackers out there with solid feature-sets, and I don't 
see a need to add another.

However, I'm very much open to integration with an external bug tracker. 
For example, it'd be nice to be able associate bugs (from an external 
bug tracker) with patches (in patchwork), and have patchwork 
automatically update the bug status when the patch is accepted.

There have not been any requests for this so far, though.

Cheers,


Jeremy
