username -> fullname extensions

I work for a rather large company >100,000 employees and
our team has
recently adopted Trac (finally!)

Anyhow our svn checkins all have un-recognizable usernames
('xx342yb'
for example). None of us really know anyone else's ID.
However
everyone has their real name entered as an account setting.
I would
really like to change two things at first with more things
later.

1) The timeline summary. Show checkins as "rev# by
xx342yb (Henry
Codenmonkey)"
2) on all tickets so that the dropdown for ticket assignment
shows
entries like "xx342yb (Henry Codenmonkey)"

I've looked around in the base code and seen how to fix
these. But I'd
rather do this as an extension so that the changes survive
Trac
upgrades.

What is the best way to go about this? There don't seem to
be any
extension points for username display.

Thanks!

I'm in a similar situation in terms of need for extending
ticket 
assignment. 

I have a company I work with who has decided to adopt Trac
as their IT 
Helpdesk system.  We would like to limit the number of users
who will 
show up in the assignment list, we want only the IT group
members 
available for ticket assignment, not the whole company.

If you start work on a plugin, let me know I'd like to help
out.

See ticket #2456 and patches at trac.edgewall.org - it's not
totally what you
want, but it's a start.

Put all your IT people in a particular group und give only
this group
TICKET_ADMIN permissions. Do not forget to set
restrict_owner to true,
and you are set.

I did a patch (for ticket assignment) a long time ago, maybe
it's a
start. See #2178
