CQL UI for Content picker should include "Current page"

      (from Natalie's comment in CONF-34326)

      In the CQL UI Space picker the user is given the option of "Current space" which creates underlying CQL like "space = currentSpace()", but for the Content picker there is no corresponding "Current content" that creates CQL like "parent = currentContent()".

      Given that the currently-active content is already in the same internal Context object used to resolve the currentSpace() function, it should be easy enough to create the "currentContent()" function.

      Then, in the UI, a "Current content" option could appear at the top of the "Suggested pages" list when a user triggers the Content picker.

            Um, this doesn't seem to be available in Confluence Cloud?

            Good luck David! This improvement cuts large swaths of new potential functionality and several of my customers as for the abilty to use 'the current page' within macros.

            Hi natalie.swallow,

            I had hoped to get it into 5.9 but the improvement required changes to three of our Confluence codebases (each with interlocking dependencies), so it's now looking like a 6.0 feature. I'm planning to have everything merged to our main release branch later this week

            Thanks for the update! We are super excited to hear that. Do you think this would be in place within a 5.9 version or not until 6.0 is released?

            Hi natalie.swallow,

            My apologies for the delay: this improvement was a personal project and lay dormant until recently. I'm now pushing to get it into the next release of Confluence!

            Best regards,
            David

            Can we get an update on this? We desperately need this functionality in place before we can upgrade because of how we use page properties in templates.

            Hi David,

            I saw that this has been in Technical Review for about a month and a half. Any hope of seeing this soon? We really need this to update past 5.7.

            Thanks!
