The initial screen for anonymous users seems to be the JIRA dashboard, but without any application/global tabs. Once the user selects an issue or a project or just logs in, the application tabs appear correctly. Is there some configuration option I am missing? It is even more important to have the application tabs for new users than returning users, yet they just see the dashboard.
Perhaps there is a way to configure the initial landing point to be a wiki page or another application tab instead?
