This. :) My goal was not to direct him away from Trac for the
solution, but get him thinking about ways to integrate these two
backends. Maybe then I can win too!

Writing a ticket <-> Snowy sync engine has been on my TODO list for a
bit now. It'd probably make sense to have a new Note resource just as
well, although this choice (who has time for both, raise hand! ok,
nobody.) probably needs some additional thought. It might perhaps be
possible to re-use Snowy's backend code with little modification.

This was enough to spark me to finally file 
http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/10012,
also been on the TODO list for too long.
