Yeah, I went through it briefly and rather important concern seem to
have been raised by Tom Lane in this msg:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2011-05/msg01480.php

This paragraph:

Ugh, what do you mean by that?  You can change any attribute (like
status, priority, assigned person, etc.) of a ticket via email.
Anything else?

brilliant on handing email and stuff?
