      For Bamboo we use URLs like below to display JIRA issues in Bamboo

      which works fine, however if an issue key is invalid or an issue has been deleted, a 400 error is returned, even though there is one issue that is valid.

      It'd be great for us to be able to pass in a field like "issueKeyValidate=false" that would disable issueKey validation, and just try to return anything that it matches, even if the value may be invalid.

      You might even want to extend this flag to be "dataKeyValidate=false" so that you could also ignore validation for things like version names
