 What I was trying to point out is that Trac does not currently have that
 information. It does not know that some ports are subports, and what their
 portdirs are.

 > One could also take into account that the string entered into the port
 edit field might be a regular expression (e.g. {{{kmymoney4(-devel)}}})
 which would require generating more than one link per expression. [Well, I
 am aware of that this is probably a special case not met that often.]

 I would consider this a user error, not something we want to support. The
 Port field should contain port and subport names, not regular expressions.
