+This plugin tracks ticket page views and provides "last unread" link on ticket pages.
+Similar to one you've probably seen on most forums.
+The only difference is that this plugin is better: it does not just
+uses your last login time, but actually tracks time when you requested
+each ticket - and that's why trac environment upgrade is required.
 
+Of course, it does not work for anonymous users.
+
+== Can I use it in reports? ==
+Yes, you can.

+
+But there are limitations.
+
+First of all, you will need PostgreSQL (I'm pretty sure Mysql will work
+too, but I just don't have trac instance with this backend). SQLite
+lacks string functions required to extract comment number from
+"parent.reply" pair in the database.
+
+Then, you must dump all `_description`, `description_` and
+`_description_` fields from your report (they are hidden in default
+reports anyway). Reason: we will need this field to provide link to
+"unread comment". The only way to include another link to report row is
+generating wiki markup in `description` field. At least, I found no
+other way (in Trac 0.10.4).
