Proposal

Add a quick action for start_date

Some of our customers using the Plan features in gitlab and would like to plan out future work by using the Start Date. They like using quick actions /date feature and would like to use it for start date as well as due date.

The power users typically set a lot of issues, so having a start_date quick action is a huge accelerator for them.

UX

Add start quick action

  • Command: /start_date
  • Description: Set start date
  • Secondary text: Use same as due — <in 2 days | this Friday | December 31st>

Add due_date alias to match approach

  • Add /due_date, aliased to /due
