Daniel Atallah has been cranking out plugins for Pidgin's Trac install  
to do all sorts of things.

The only plugin I know of which we're using and which isn't updated  
to .11 is the search field, and I think that someone with knowledge of  
the language could implement it pretty trivially.

The other problem we ran into was an interaction between lighttpd and  
Trac in which we couldn't have Trac running at /; it wanted to run in  
a subpath.  The patch applied to fix this in .10.x didn't fix it in .11.

That'd be a good question for someone to ask in #trac

I can't envision us moving to another system.  Trac works pretty  
fantastically for most things we do.
