Hello Harald,


That explanation was quite helpful. I'd been wondering all along why an external
method had to be used.
However, one question still remains in my mind: How can the escalator help me
apart from showing that the priority has been changed on th web UI? I was thinking
in the lines of (say) in a situation where priority begins at 0, and with time
moves towards 10 over 10 days, I'd like to have the Admin Watcher notified when
priority is over 6. It means ticket is still unresolved, yes? Maybe this can be
done but I am by no means capable of coming up with something that can do it.

It again leaves me wondering - what is the expect effect of the escalator??


TIA
