We use gitlab at PacketZoom too and are mostly happy with this. But yes, I second the request for either:

a) Creation of a project independent of git repos.

OR

b) At least a way to attach issues across projects. Issue management is probably the weakest part of gitlab and one of the big reasons is this fragmentation of issues across git repos. It's trivial to see that issues can and will cut across git repos in any reasonably complex product. Another "nice to have" feature would be an ability to create "dependent" issues.
