You might find examples in the Trac codebase helpful as well. The delete
button on the Report List page (/report) appears to be performing a similar
function to what you are trying to accomplish - sending the user to another
page when clicking on a button.

In order to attach the button to the existing ticket page, you'll need to
do some work in Genshi via ITemplateStreamFilter, or JavaScript. The
optional TicketDeleter component provided by Trac has an example of how
this could be done in Genshi. TicketDeleter does not currently work with
Bloodhound, but you can try it out in standard instance of Trac or after
disabling the Bloodhound theme. You might find JavaScript to be the easier
way to accomplish this. I don't see any similar examples using JavaScript
in the Trac codebase, but you should be able to find jQuery examples of
generating HTML and inserting it into a page on trac-hacks or elsewhere
around the web.
