Any connector that supports looking up tasks by an ID should be able
to support opening repository tasks. You can try this for Bugzilla if
you type a number into the task list search field and then follow the
link that says "Search repository for key or summary". Setting a break
point in BugzillaRepositoryConnector.getTaskData() should give you an
idea how this works internally.

Are you planning to make your connector available publicly? If so
please feel free to comment on this bug to let others know who have
expressed interest in a connector for StarTeam:
