Description

Please add a button "New issue" in the kanban view, e.g. next to "New Project board" that creates a new issue that is automatically assigned to the kanban view's project.

Alternatively a [+] button or similar could be added to each column which then creates an issue for the current project in the given column.

What is the preferred place for this button?
I did a quick modification to see the upper one:

I think the colour should be not the same as the New Project board button.

The second option to put it on each column, but how common is to create an issue with in progress or done status, instead of the beginning of the process/backlog? GitLab allows to create issue in each state/column.

My other question is about the way to pass project name to the new issue form. Is it possible only with GET parameters or do we have other solution for this?

@szatyinadam Maybe the New Project board button can be replaced with New Issue and a new [+] button is added to the most right column that adds a new column. This way the New Issue is located at the same place in the same color where it also is located in the regular issue list view.

OK, I like your suggestions. Can some project maintainer accept this design?
