Whenever I have a template / blueprint with a JIRA issue macro I want to predefine what columns should be displayed and how many issues will be shown.
Behaviour right now: 
- In the blueprint / template a jira issue macro has been set.
- when creating a new page and clicking on the instructional text for the jira issue macro, the create jira issue dialog opens. There standard values will be displayed. Always:
- Maximum issues: 20
- Columns to display: Key, Summary, Issue Type, Created, Updated, Due Date, Assignee, Reporter, Priority, Status, Resolution
Wanted behaviour:
- In the blueprint or template a user can choose how many issues will be returned by default and what columns should be displayed.
	- Example: Maximum issues: 100
- Columns to display: Key, Summary, Status, Resolution
 
My use case:
I create a product requirement where a requirement has 2 EPICs. As soon as I insert two Epics - I do not want to use 2 jira issue macros - I get a table with predefined columns. However, I only really need these Columns displayed: Key, Summary, Status, Resolution. Because in the requirements document I really don't need more information...
