I think many other users use Jira like me: they report issues in a SINGLE Jira project.

However, the way Jira works is pretty annoying: I open an issue from another project, or hte last accessed issue is from a random project and when I create it, Jira automatically selects the last used project.

I do NOT want this. I always want to create issues in MY project. It happens often when working cross teams to access a project from another team but reporting is in MY project.

Do DOT automatically select the last project. Do not take decisions. At least do NOT select any project by default.
