>Description:
Clients need to have a way of finding out from the builtin name of a field what
the name of the field is. If someone for instance wants to call their Synopsis
field something "Case", the client must be able to find out that "Case"
corresponds to the builtin field "synopsis".
Gnatsweb currently hardcodes these correspondences, and that is not a good way
to do it.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
We need to find a way to incorporate this into the GNATS protocol, preferably
in a way that doesnæt increase the number of commands.
