Visibility of column in issue navigator is different depending on whether I choose "Any" issue type, or select all the issue types.

    Description

      NOTE: This bug report is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding bug report.

      We have the Greenhopper/Agile plugin on our Jira. On the Issue Navigator, through Tools > Configure Columns I added the "Story Points" column. It appears in the "Re-order columns" view and I can see populated values.

      When I click back to "Issue Navigator", the column is missing. But, if I filter on all issue types (i.e. ensure every issue type in the list is selected) - the story points column magically appears. If I search with just "Any" issue type selected however, the Story Points column vanishes again. As far as I can tell, the column is visible whenever I choose any issue type other than "Any" - so just choosing 'standard issue types' also makes the column visible.

      In JQL:
      works - I can see "Story Points" column with any of these examples:

      issuetype in standardIssueTypes()
      issuetype in ("New Feature", epic)
      

      A blank JQL query however (equivalent to "Any" issue type) does not work - I cannot see "Story Points" column.

      It also seems to hide the column if my filter does not select any issue types (such as epic or story) that have stories. So for example, if I filter on "New Feature" or "Bug", it does not show the story points column. That seems reasonable. It does show the column if my filter includes both "New Feature" and Epic (see second JQL above), i.e. one issue type that has story points and one that does not - which is also good. However if I choose "Any" issue type, that should include any Epics and Stories and show the associated story points. (it should certainly give the same results as when I individually select all of the possible issue types).

      Additionally, this also affects the 'Export'>>'Excel (All fields)'. The 'Story Points' field will not be exported if it is not displayed in the issue navigator. If you adjust the JQL to

      "Story Points" is not EMPTY

      the export functionality will function as expected.
