Description
NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.
Hi everyone,
At this time, this suggestion is not on the JIRA development roadmap. We stand by our original decision to remove this feature when we redesigned issue search several years ago.
Please remember that jira.atlassian.com is one of many inputs for the JIRA roadmap. You can learn more about our process here.
I understand that our decision may be disappointing. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Regards,
Dave Meyer

Once again, your short sightedness on what is useful has struck again. This is a request to put back the JQL History mechanism. Here are some comments from the 5.2 upgrade notes page.
--------------------
JQL history is immensely useful. I'm often looking at issues and just wish to perform transient searches...searches that I do not want to save. The JQL history serves as a convenient place that automatically saves these drafts.
Another use case, when I'm fine tuning searches, I need to jump back and forth between statements to see what they produced.
Ironically, Favorite Filters are the ones I use the least because like browser bookmarks, you eventually accumulate so much that the old stuff has no meaningful purpose to you anymore, and you don't have time to unfavorite them.
--------------------
I totally agree with the feedback given by Anonymous on November 14th: the JQL History is (was) incredibly useful when developing a good query... and that fiddling comes before it is saved as a Filter. I do not want to have to save my experiments as Filters. That would cause problems in itself... many of the experiments would be failures and thus just create clutter that needs to be cleaned up manually later.
