I agree with Vlad in that whatever solution we develop, it definitely
should not be dependent upon a single client interface.

Ronny and I have spoken a bit via email about this topic.  As an
example, TortoiseSVN already handles some degree of issue tracking, when
the issue tracking is done via a set of rules they've set forth.  While
TortoiseSVN is significant, and perhaps one of the most popular clients
for Subversion, I still think Vlad is right...the issue tracking should
not be limited to a single interface.

However, I'm not sure that extends to administration of the
issue-tracking system.  If the administrative interface to 'subissue' is
web-based, but various clients can interact via some issue-tracking API,
with all the metadata stored within the subversion repository itself,
then, to my mind, that's a clean solution.  You may disagree.

If you haven't seen the spec the TSVN guys have laid out, here's a link:

If nothing else, perhaps this will give us some solid grist for the mill
:).
