Dragging and selecting issues versus navigating in issue boards
Problem
When dragging issues in the main issue board view and when selecting issues in the upcoming add issue modal, you currently have to avoid clicking the issue title. If you do so, you will navigate to the issue itself.
When dragging, if you make a "big" dragging motion, it is dragging on the title link is okay and doesn't navigate. But if you drag slightly and release, it will navigate. So the problem is more prominent for the add issues modal case.
We want both use cases: We want to drag/select and also navigate. But we want to make sure the design prevents the user to easily make a mistake and do something unintended.
Proposals
- Remove the link from the title. Instead, add a clickable icon. When you click the icon, you navigate to the issue.
- When trigger navigating to the issue, you open a new tab.
