Hi,
I cannot believe this issue has been there and screamed about for so long, and still it is not added to Jira. Happy to understand you do not want to support it. But why? So many people want to have it. So make it a feature which can be turned on and off?
The workarounds are a joke. why does Atlasssian have an official workaround page instead of just implementing this very essential feature? Happy to have an owner and then assignees if you need to have one person linked in the Database? But when I want to search for tasks I am currently working on I want to see all of them and not just the ones that have my name in the assignee field
Now that you bought Trello you can learn from them how it is been done...
