I have reviewed a few other topics regarding sorting options.
What I want to do is avoid having priority-based swimlanes just so that I can rank tickets within a priority category.
I was so disgusted by the responses regarding this functionality in the other topics that I thought it best to fire this one up again just to see what nonsense I get.
So, as others have asked, why can't I have a ORDER BY Priority DESC, RANK ASC on a board such that I get a default ordering with highest prio. on the top and I can order tickets within those priorities as I want?
This leaves me with limited value in the actual task priority as it promotes unnecessary asynchronous communication among our teams.
I understand that Atlassian will do whatever they're going to do. I'm just gonna get my popcorn ready and await the absolutely worthless responses...
