And what about GNATS? What about the others on http://www.a-a-p.org/tools_tracking.html ? A number of those address the web-based concern. Do any of them answer your other concerns? If there are, where do those fail that bugzilla, GNATS, etc. get it right?

Well, have fun, good luck, and I do hope you come up with something useful and maintainable.
