redmine is apparently a "trac clone written in ruby".
No idea if it's database-compatible, or just similar idea but full 
re-implementation.

But really, I don't see how in the long run a separate issue tracker 
from Forgejo makes sense.
The issue IDs will eventually clash, and integration and linking between 
them will be a right mess.

Plus the multi-account issue you mentioned.

I never had issues with the Forgejo Issue search. What exactly is 
broken/missing? Fixing/enhancing those things is usually pretty easy.
