    ๐Ÿ’ป General user UI

    • ๐Ÿ‘‰ Show the Ticket's Subject when modifying the ticket.

    ๐ŸŒ Web Administration

    • When listing group members, sort by text-only representation of the
      ๐Ÿ‘‰ user, not HTML (I#30771)

    • In shredder, check for both id and name mismatches when loading objects

      values.

      has no value on a ticket.
