Sweet.

I'm not sure you actually need to mix HTML both have made. I think  
Buildbot has some support already for inspecting its state over PB  
(for the commandline utilities and whatnot). So the sorts of  
[buildbot: buildbot-full.status] link you're talking about could be  
made without any contact to the buildbot webserver, and the links  
back can be made without talking to trac, since it can just know the  
URL for a given changelist.
