Description

Presently the 'default' tracker value is determined by its UTF-8 encoding so that the tracker with lowest alphabetic value description displays and is selected automatically if the user does not alter it. I suggest that the default tracker be settable by project and that a nil default be available which would mean that the user MUST select one tracker value from the available list but that none will be preselected for them.

Target version deleted (~~0.8~~)

The target version field has to be set when it will actually part of the target release.

I second this request. There's a great tendency to forget to select an appropriate tracker when a default is provided. Our development group has had to move dozens of issues between trackers over time as a result of this.

Also, since I can't add related issues, I'll just point out the related patch in #1667

I totaly agree : it's really easy in Redmine to set a wrong tracker with the default choice, and such feature would be great for data's consistency.

I agree too and the patch seems to "resolve" this feature. Could you it put in the next release ?

Hi.

This patch isn't executable in Redmine version 1.2.2.

Is there a handy man to create this feature as a Redmine plugin? I'm new to Ruby :-(

Thank you.
