Perhaps it'd be worth a new field (spkg) and then we could
make a nice, easy report of tickets by spkg.

A drop-down box like "component", without the version number?
I can see the point of that. Being able to search by component would
be useful.
+1 to that from me.
But it's not obvious to me how this will help find what people are
working on, so avoiding clashes of patches and two people creating
tickets of the same version number.
Ideally there needs to be a way of searching for tickets based on a
particular .spkg, which people are actively working on, rather than
issues reported long ago, that nobody is looking at
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/1169
is an NTL related ticket that has not been touched for 19 months.
I doubt I would have any need to worry about that if I were updating
NTL now. So how would I find tickets where people are actively
working on them?
Well, personally I would use my judgement based on the activity of any
relevant tickets, pinging the person who opened (or last edited) the
ticket if needed. Not perfect, but there are few enough people working
on any given spkg at any given time that this should be sufficient.
