That's very interesting - could you tell us about why they/you decided 
to make the change?

Thank you for writing this tool. :-) Which versions of Mantis and 
Bugzilla does it work with?

To include it in Bugzilla (perhaps in the "contrib" directory), it would 
  probably need to be licensed under the MPL (Mozilla Public License), 
either instead or as well, because that's the license that Bugzilla 
uses. Do you think your employer might agree to that?

Otherwise, we could link to it from our documentation.
