Single list for epics and issues
Problem to solve
We use both epics and issues to store valuable information that we want to find in the future. When searching, we use labels to find what's of our interest.
That's great, and epics and issues lists are places where I go very often.
With group level support for lists, I don't have to look at multiple issues lists anymore.
I still have to check issues and epics independently, and this is suboptimal. When I know that I wrote information somewhere, and I want to find it, I still need to go to multiple lists (epics and group issues).
It would be awesome to have both in one single list, or to easily jump from the group issue list to the epics list for the same group, keeping search criteria and labels.

Proposal
Create a unified experience for searching in both epics and issues for a specific group.
It could be a new way to show the list view, or an easy way to switch from epics to issues, keeping the same search filters.
Maybe the MVC is to share search history between the two lists in the same group, so we can easily set them again.
