I'm not sure what support contracts have to do with anything
here. "Customer" in the context of customising RT generally
refers to a customer who underwrites the development of a
given feature, on a project basis. This is independent from
having an ongoing support contract.

I think it's already been established that if such a customer
were to come forward, the feature could be implemented.. however
in absence of such a customer, it's not likely to be done at
the detriment of work that people *are* paying for (as you
already noted, Tim.)

Of course, if someone who actually wanted this were to sit
down and implement it and submit the patches, there's a very
good chance they'd be considered for inclusion...
