Description (last modified by Alec Thomas)

Currrently when you query for a ticket's information you get all the attributes on it, however I have no way to identify a user uniquely besides their username which is only relevant on the server. So I can't contact that user through his email information or have a local application specific user store that can query this information for particular users. So if I had this interface I could get a user's full name(first and last), and at least his email. I assume the AccountManagerPlugin could extend the attributes available for a user and maybe even add more calls like a user.getAll()

This could be added to AccountManagerPlugin or perhaps user session introspection could be added to XmlRpcPlugin.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
