Description Thomas Ehrnhoefer CLA 2012-02-08 16:25:00 EST 
Most connectors have a different number than 5 for priority options.
Some framework support for trying to map any ordered collection of priorities into those 5 buckets in Mylyn would be great. I assume lots of connectors implement something like this (most of them hardcoded), but also lots of connectors will have customizable options, so a generic approach seems like a good solution (of course with the connector being able to override that behaviour)

I'll look into extracting the code from the Trac connector to a reusable framework utility.
Comment 2 Steffen Pingel CLA 2012-02-11 08:42:18 EST 
I have added PriorityLevel.fromValue() which returns a mapped value based on a list of priorities and a priority value.
