This is edited since they already had the original idea in the works.
Description: The "new"-er idea is to allow for a consolidated Kanban view for Tasks and Issues in a single list.
It's important because: Since most users don't care about whether the "thing I gotta do" started out as a task or an issue, it would be beneficial to see them all in one list. It's so much easier to prioritise and organise when you can see everything together.
How I'd like it to work: a choice on the board itself or in the project nav bar to include Tasks and Issues together. Or, make that the default and add an indicator on the card telling if it's a task or issue.
How it works Now: Users have to go 2 different places to see tasks and issues even on the same project
Old-er original idea:
Description - Put a "Boards" view icon on the Issues page of projects.
Why is this feature important to you - A lot of organisations use issues extensively in projects. Also this would be great for request queues.
How would you like the feature to work - Exactly that same as the Boards view for tasks
Current Behaviour - You have to create an external Board and filter for the issues in the project you want to target.
