Well, to be clear: I have an opinion against time tracking as a tool for
product management or estimation, especially if it involves extra
bookkeeping. From what I can tell, Redmine does work like that.
That said, Redmine might be better than Bugzilla for a variety of other
reasons. Or, maybe time tracking is really great when done right and I
just haven't ever seen that yet. When I say skeptical, I just mean that
I would like to see evidence first.
If it really makes the PMs' lives much better, we should definitely
consider it. I agree with you that developers should be considered the
primary 'customer' of the tool though.
