You don't need to move to GitLab to achieve that, do you?

In fact, we had this project where somebody invested quite a lot of time
& effort to implement a proof of concept for migrating Trac tickets into
Phabricator which you might remember; it was generally well received
but afaik this was silently forgotten about and so the ball was dropped
in pushing it further:

I'd much rather sacrifice Trac's benefits by consolidating Trac tickets
into Phabricator (if the tighter integration between code-review &
ticketing is the main compelling argument) than to give up on both,
Phabricator *and* Trac.
