Learn more about the process: https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/how-to-engage/#customer-feature-requests. The section "Release notes" can be used as a summary of the feature and is also required if you want to have your release post blog MR auto generated using the release post item generator: https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/blog/release-posts/#release-post-item-generator. The remaining sections are the backbone for every feature in GitLab. The goal of this template is brevity for quick/smaller iterations. For a more thorough list of considerations for larger features or feature sets, you can leverage the detailed [feature proposal](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/.gitlab/issue_templates/Feature%20proposal%20-%20detailed.md). --> ### Release notes Optionally update existing users settings when changing defaults <!-- What is the problem and solution you're proposing? This content sets the overall vision for the feature and serves as the release notes that will populate in various places, including the [release post blog](https://about.gitlab.com/releases/categories/releases/) and [Gitlab project releases](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/releases). " --> ### Problem to solve Changing certain user defaults (such as [the default project limit](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/settings/account_and_limit_settings.html#default-projects-limit)) does not apply this same change to existing users. This leads to confusion (it's not always clear in the UI that this doesn't happen) and extra tasks for admins having to write/run scripts to update existing objects. ### Proposal Have a prompt when changing these settings to ask the admin if they wish to update any existing users to the new default. ### Intended users <!-- Who will use this feature? If known, include any of the following: types of users (e.g. Developer), personas, or specific company roles (e.g. Release Manager). It's okay to write "Unknown" and fill this field in later.
