Easy linking between Trac environments

+''Warning: this is only a feature proposal''
+
+An InterTrac link is useful for referring from within a Trac environment
+to a Trac object (Wiki page, changeset, ticket, ...) located in another
+Trac environment, with a syntax as simple as possible.
+
+It is base on the usage of 1-letter prefix associated to 
+a Trac environment.
+
+Assuming the {{{T}}} letter has been set up to refer to the
+Edgewall's Trac environment, one could refer to this page
+as {{{wiki:T:InterTrac}}}.
+
+TracLinks shortcuts are also adapted: #T234 refers to #234
+on this Trac site. [T1490] refers to the changeset 1490 on
+this Trac site, etc.
+
+The association between letters and Trac environments
+is done quite simply in an {{{[intertrac]}}} section
+within the {{{trac.ini}}} file.
+Currently this has to be repeated for each Trac environment,
+but there's work in progress concerning a 
+[ticket:1051 centralized trac.ini], which
+would help greatly here.
+
+
+This idea was first proposed as a patch for #234, and 
+should be shortly proposed for inclusion in the 
+following branch: 
+source:branches/cboos-dev/intertrac-branch
+(i.e. source:T:branches/cboos-dev/intertrac-branch)
