Because we want epic link to be mandatory when creating an issue, I added a validator to check epic link field when creating an issue. Now if I try to create an epic, it requires epic link, but an epic cannot be linked to another epic. So it's a vicious circle. Although I allowed context settings to be checked when applying this validator it seems to ignore the fact that epics cannot have epic links. Any idea of a workaround to have epic links mandatory for any issue type except epics?
