Search for JIRA Issue based on the current user being the Project Lead.

A bit late but I was searching for the same answer and came up with that JQL query in the JIRA Issue Navigator:

project in projectsLeadByUser()

The question is not even a question, but reading between the line, I saw this function in the JQL Tricks plugin: https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/wiki/display/JQLT/User+Functions

It would be nice if, in JQL, you could use a dotted notation like:

issue.project.lead = currentUser()

That's not actually a very clear question. Could you clarify "current user" for example?

If you mean "the person currently actively logged into Jira", then the rest of the question probably doesn't make much sense. Is there a better way to phrase the exact question maybe? Such as "return all the issues that the current user is the project lead for" (which I don't think you can do because project lead is not an issue field - you'd need to derive or copy it down to the issue level, or do a two-layered question - find all projects where user is the lead and then show all issues in those projects)
