Hello,

First of all, this is a great project. I'd like to say thanks to all
for the hard work. I've been using it for some time now with great
success.

At my company, we would like to use the story/task information stored
in xplanner to bill external clients. In order to do this, we would
need to add several pieces of information at the story and/or task
level. Examples include:

- customer, which would ideally be selected from a drop down.
- work breakdown category, ex: requirement spec, new code, defect, etc
- maybe a subtype of work breakdown category

Basically, some sort of hierarchical system of user defined
cateogries/types that can be assigned arbitrarily to facilitate some
external process or workflow. Is there any value in this? Is there
some other means to address these types of needs that I've missed?

Thanks,
Jeb
