Well, it can be done even with trac 0.10.x:

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/report

We adopted the workflow in Sage around trac and it has been running 
rather smoothly.

Now that we updated trac to 0.11.3 we will use workflows to get around 
the rather primitive manual need to change summaries. But as often KISS 
works really weel.
