ticet description editing permissions to owner

[john.williams@…]

THis is similar to #1316.

It would be very helpful if permissions to edit a ticket's description could be restricted to the owner. This allows the administrator(ahem) to be freed up from changing ticket descriptions all the time, while not giving all users in my developer group the TICKET_EDIT_DESCRIPTION permission.

Agreed. Actually, I would like to see this in a more general case. It would be very nice to have a permission setting for actions only available to the owner of the ticket.
Something like: resolve.permissions = TICKET_OWNER which allows only the ticket owner to resolve the ticket.

PrivateTicketsPlugin could be extended to work with TICKET_EDIT_DESCRIPTION, surely?

I've opened #3568 on the trac-hacks wiki to handle permissions in workflow

Comment 1 has been implemented in VirtualTicketPermissionsPlugin. It creates a permission called 'TICKER_IS_OWNER' that is only given when the current user is the owner of the ticket (there are other new permissions for CC and reporter and groups too)
