Description
User Story
As a Jira administrator, I need archiving of a team-managed project to also hide it's custom fields from the rest of the system because we need to keep this data for historical purposes but cannot continue with the custom field dumpster fire this creates.
Context
- Project admins can create their own custom fields in team managed projects without restriction on name or uniqueness.
- Human languages have a finite number of terms for the same concept, leading to multiple TMP-sourced custom fields with the exact same name in the system.
- When looking at custom fields, Jira will in most situations simply show you the name without any other context.
- Archiving a TMP does not hide custom fields from the rest of the system.
- It is not possible to delete Jira projects if you need to retain the issues inside them for historical purposes.
This comes together to create another usability dumpster fire with very little recourse.
