I have not, mainly because that's not a Need That I Have. However, I
don't imagine it'd be difficult too write glue modules to get those
things happening (and I'd entertain paid requests when that time ever
comes - curse you Final Fantasy XII!). I doubt, however, that I'd write
that integration into the casetracker_time.module itself - I'm more
concerned with "sprightly" code that integrates well than heavy modules.
With all that said, I /do/ need a number of different time reports, and
I expect to do that with views integration of some sort, or at least
some examples of using the functions to generate your own.
