There are many fields missing in the new view:
Type - although the icon is there, if you are new to Jira, you don't know what the represents.
Status - Same as above, the field title is missing
Priority, resolution, Affects Version, Fix versions Labels, Epic Link, all now missing. Do we have to re-customize the fields we want to see? A conversion shouldn't lose existing fields/functionality.
I am less that happy with this new view.
