= What this is =

The patch below provides two distinct improvements to the default RT interface (3.4.1):

* Ticket Update interface (/reply, comment/) now contains both Time Worked and Time Left fields, instead of just Time Worked field. This makes it easier to keep Time Left field up to date.
* The above interface is augmented with a javascript event handler that automatically calculates the new value for Time Left when Time Worked is updated. If Time Worked -field is manually changed, the event handler is disabled.

These changes facilitate the following use case:

# Create ticket with Time Left = 200 minutes
# Work 100 minutes, half way through, enter Ticket Update interface
## Notice how Time Left field contains value 200
## Now enter the Time Worked: 100
## Move the keyboard focus away from the Time Worked entry (click on another field, use Tab...)
## Notice how Time Left is updated to new value: 100 minutes
## Jot down a message, Update Ticket

== How to install ==
