    Description

      I would like to be able to convert a sub-task into a normal issue. The reasons are that

      • sometimes issues are created as sub-tasks when they should not be.
      • sometimes a sub-task outlasts the issue for which it is a sub-task and it needs to become a task of its own

      Currently the workaround is to close the issue and open a new issue, but this is not ideal, as the issue ID changes rendering any links to the issue dangling.
