Developer role on project cannot modify group level tags inside the project

Summary

If a user is developer on a project and has to move their ticket across the board, but the board is made from group level labels, they are not able to move the ticket.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Be developer on a project, the project has group level labels as the lists. Try to drag the ticket to another swim lane.
  2. The ticket moves, but on refresh it goes back
  3. Also cannot change tags.

What is the current bug behavior?

A developer on a project cannot move things from one section or another because it was made with group labels. All these projects have the same labels and it would be a pain in the ass for me to have to recreate all these labels by hand 7 times (there are like 20 labels) in order for them to be project labels. However I do not want these people to see all the projects, just the one they are working on....

What is the expected correct behavior?
