[rt-users] adding custom filed value to email

[Gene LeDuc]

I cut my teeth on APL and used to spend hours shaving 7 or 8 bytes from the 
size of 360 assembly language programs, so I do have an appreciation for 
efficient and elegant coding solutions.

However...  several decades later and who-knows-how-many brain cells fewer, 
I've found that I spend less time looking up function names and fixing 
typos using code like:

   my $custom_field = get_custom("SomeField");

and

   set_custom("SomeField", $my_val);

### I've also developed a new appreciation for comment lines in my old age. :)
