One approach is the one Bugs Everywhere takes: storing the bug records
as part of the source tree.  I'm the main author of Bugs Everywhere, and
I use Bugs Everywhere to manage bugs for BzrTools.

I think that would be a trac thing, not specifically a trac+bzr thing.

It's all web requests, so I doubt it would be too hard.
