#8989 new enhancement
Show nicer error message when there is a ticket with multiple parents

Description
Here is the error I saw when I tried to include a ticket in a milestone displayed in the TracJsGanttChart and that ticket had multiple parents (via SubticketsPlugin).
It might not be immediately obvious why this error is occurring, and that you can't have any tickets with multiple parents, so I propose to display a more user friendly error for this condition.
I can provide a patch this weekend.

Hmmm, it's been four months. ;-)
Oh yeah .. I totally forgot about this. I'm expecting to send you a patch for both this ticket and #9442 within the next two weeks.

It's been an awful lot longer than four months now! I'm not a Python programmer, nor really a Trac expert, and so I've just wasted the best part of an hour while upgrading Trac in order to work out what was going on.
I see the comment that says that the failure is deliberate, and I think it is poor design decision. I don't know why code from jsgantt is being called when I create or edit a ticket, so I don't know what the right behavious is. But I do know that it is not "crash with a cryptic message".

I'm not using the plugin at the moment, so it's unlikely that I'll find time to provide a patch in the near future.
