Just curious - has there been any though of switching to Trac 
(http://trac.edgewall.org)?
Some nifty features of Trac:
- Integrated Wiki
- Supports Mercurial integration:
  http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracMercurial

I've never used it with Mercurial, but with SVN, it's got nice features 
like letting you close/update a ticket from within a commit - IE, when you 
commit your code, you say "refs #1234" or "closes #1234", and it will 
automatically add your comments and take the action on the ticket. I've 
switched many places who used to sparingly use Bugzilla over to Trac, and 
where Bugzilla didn't get used very much, Trac gets used heavily.  :)
