Well, to make your list shorter (i.e., with one item):

* To be able to support number of products, components, users, 
  hits per second as Bugzilla does. Problem I heard of all 
  competing products (trac, jira, etc.) is that they are lovely 
  when you are talking about one project with few components, but 
  when you get to clustering databases and similar magic, all of 
  them fail pretty badly.
* of course, open source -- just to be safe that there isn't some 
  Microsoft/Oracle/whatever closed source thing, which can manage 
  it.
