Oh, I just found something that I would find pretty useful: Grouping of
query results. Currently all I can do is order the result by one of the
columns, but I'd also like to group them by another property. This would
allow to see all bugs for a product, grouped by component and orderd by
priority, which makes it easy to pick a good task to start next :)
