When you have issues in different repos but in the same board it seems very confusing that you can create them and then have to assign them to a repo for them to move out of being a Draft issue (well maybe it is not an issue yet rather a task). Maybe I'm using it wrong but I found this pretty strange. Most projects will have a backend and frontend repo certainly when building an app so I think not being able to manage issues against both projects made things a bit strange. Maybe I should use a different blank mono repo just for issues but then I imaging the integration with PRs and commit messages breaks.

Additionally I want to be able to have #PROJ-0002 style IDs for tasks, so for example I can add messages for tasks that affect both repos (e.g. "Imported types from GraphQL API into app (#BACKEND-1234, #FRONTEND-1234)") just having numbers is very limited and slightly confusing.
