#
# These "auto" forms of the normal ticket path route helpers allow us to do two things automatically:
#
# (1) include the user in the path if appropriate.
# (2) retain the sort params, if appropriate.
#
# Tickets views with a user_id are limited to that user. For admins, they don't need a user_id for any ticket action.
#
# This is available both to the views and the tickets_controller.
