I thought it would be useful if there was a way to indicate to other
Sage developers what packages you are working on. The Wiki seemed like
the obvious place.
Does this page look useful? Could it be improved, or should it just be
scrapped.

I don't know if its possible to create a better system of linking the
trac to the Wiki, as the method I used here will not put a line
through the trac ticket once it is closed.
Hmm... this is the kind of thing that should be easily searchable from
trac. (That's the canonical place to go to see what else is being worked
on at least.)

Agreed, though it practice it is not so easy to do that. Take for example
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6705
about missing tuning parameters for sun4v processors. I submitted that 10 months
ago. Let's say I decide to fix that now. Nobody else is likely to know I'm
working on it - they would have to be clairvoyant to know that.
