As a user, when I open the "Create Issue" pop up, I want the Project to be set to the Project I'm already in by default

[Yen Pham]

So I and others don't accidentally create an issue in the wrong project. This happens pretty often by many people

[Joe Pitt]

I think the logic is to open in the project you last created an issue in.

[Yen Pham]

Right, but most people in my experience expect that if you go to a specific project then try to create an issue, that the issue's project would default to that project you're currently in

I raised this issue to deal with this: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-59650

The problem is that it is a Server side property. Not a client side property. So opening up multiple tabs in different projects inteferes with the feature.

[Dennis Poort]

For me this is already default behaviour. It is on Server instance though.

I open a project, create issue, project is set to current project. I cancel the issue, open a new project, create a new issue, project is again set to project I am currently in.
