Why does the Agile Taskboard column always filter on a set of statuses?

Hi,

We are upgrading from Jira 4.0 to 4.4 and have been facing some issues with the task board. It appears to be adding a list of statuses that it filters independant of the states i set, which gives us incorrect results. It is only on this project and we can't seem to track it down to a workflow list or anything.

For example I have this task board in 4.0

Looking at the query for 'DONE' column:

With this column setup:

Everything looks correct.

Now I have upgraded to 4.4 with this setup (The other columns are slightly different because I reset it trying to make it work).

The task board is missing the issues though.

And here is the query:

Now this is clearly different, it is checking the status against the list i provided AND then checking some other set of status. It does this for every column even when it is set to 'NONE'. The highlighted part is what is added in 4.4, when I remove it all my results come back (because the list is missing the close states).

My question is why is it filtering by this, and how can i change it?

After further testing we have tracked down why the issues were not showing. It is because in 4.0 we had a filter on the context but because the 'Filter' checkbox was always unchecked we never cared much for it. In 4.4 the filter is always on and so it was removing those results. Changing the filter to show all statuses has corrected the issue.
