Description Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2006-07-20 16:19:10 EDT 
Add an action to bugzilla editor to isse taking id from selected text. So, when link decorator don't recognize issues it would be possible to open them anyways. Select issue id in text and use action from popup menu to open it.

I wonder if instead we should have an Open Task dialog that let's you put in an ID, and opens from the server if the ID is not in the Task List.  This could make for a bit of UI redundancy though.  For example, if there are no matches for an ID we could make the filtered tree show a node that says "click here to query server".

Mik, the most of the time for me those ids won't be in the task list. Primarily because I am too often open issues from history or sync view. So, I'd really prefer to query server right away.

PS: that could be similar to AnyEdit plugin that is opening resources, and in case if there are more then one hit it offers a choise.
