Thank you Simon.

If you have any example queries that you run often or queries which
you have embedded into wikipages then it would be useful to share them
so I can investigate.

With regards to the last point. This is possible in a more structured
way. You can create a dashboard with a single query embedded and then
embed this using standard remarkup syntax.

For example on a project page, I embedded a query which matched
tickets with "PatternSynonyms" and "newcomer".

http://ec2-52-214-147-146.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/project/profile/165/

You can embed this panel anywhere where remarkup is accepted. For
example, in a wiki page -
http://ec2-52-214-147-146.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/w/ or
tickets http://ec2-52-214-147-146.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/T12548

It is a bit more heavyweight to setup but much easier to get right due
to the structured editing interface which trac doesn't provide for
these kinds of queries.
