bugtraq pros and cons

Hi all,

I am experimenting with issue tracking integration and wish to understand
why the issue ID is stored in the artifact's comment instead of storing it
in a versioned or an unversioned property.

I think that the follow are true but I would appreciate confirmation or
clarification.

* Storing the ID in an unversioned property (revision level property) would
require the client to call the server each time it wished to know the value.
This would increase the network traffic and make it impossible to work
off-line.

* Storing the ID in a versioned property (artifact level property) would
increment the repository's version number and the ID would no longer be
associated with the correct revision of the artifact.

Is it possible to set the value of a versioned property on a changed
artifact and then commit, thus preventing the scenario above?

Thanks,
Faron.
