We have one group who does a lot of this - we basically did this:

Copy WebRT/Ticket/Update.html and Display.html to the local directory,
then add the Element 'EditPeople' into the html code of your 'local' copy:

$ diff Update.html /usr/local/rt2/WebRT/html/Ticket/Update.html
62,64d61
< <& /Elements/TitleBoxEnd &>
< <& /Elements/TitleBoxStart, title => 'People',width => "100%", color=>
"#333399" &>
< <& Elements/EditPeople, Ticket => $Ticket, UserField => $UserField,
UserString => $UserString, UserOp => $UserOp &>
67d63
<
114,116d109
< $UserField => undef
< $UserOp => undef
< $UserString => undef


Then, add the update logic into the INIT section of the Display.html:

$ diff Display.html /usr/local/rt2/WebRT/html/Ticket/Display.html
133,135d132
< my @wresults = ProcessTicketWatchers( TicketObj => $Ticket, ARGSRef =>
\%ARGS);
< push @Actions, @wresults;

We further customised our Ticket/Elements/EditPeople page, so that in
addition to two text input forms, we also have a Select for commonly used
addresses.
