      We have a number of projects with components. Since Jira does not support subcomponents, we maintain a hierarchy while creating components. For example: A component called CompA with subcomponents will be created as
      CompA - SC1
      CompA - SC2
      CompA - SC3
      Now, when we do a JQL Search, we want to search by specifying Components LIKE "CompA" which should return all issues with all components starting with CompA. Due to this missing feature, we now have to list all component names which is tedious since we sometimes have 20 subcomponents to a component.
