Add ability to create and add issues to the dependencies widget within issues

Problem to solve

I can't create issues within the issues/issues dependencies widget in issues. This would be helpful in my workflow as I could immediately create issues that are related to blocking and/or blocked by other issues. This is sort of similar to epics, where I can immediately create work items to denote hierachy.

Intended users

• Parker (Product Manager)
• Delaney (Development Team Lead)
• Presley (Product Designer)
• Sasha (Software Developer)
• Devon (DevOps Engineer)

User experience goal

Users can quickly sequences other issues to the issue they are refining, whether or not those issues exist yet.

Proposal

I think the most MVC way to approach this would be to make that add experience consistent with epics. This could be:

• Add button styling update
• Add button has options to add/attach new or existing
• The input reflect if the user is just adding existing or creating a new issue within a specific project

Future scope could tie into improving this dependencies experience entirely.

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

What is the type of buyer?

Is this a cross-stage feature?
