Re-implement or add the context back into the filter-results-gadget's source code.

Problem Definition

Since JIRA 7 it's no longer possible to have custom CSS/JS for a custom field within a JIRA "Filter Results" gadget that is used in confluence.

• jira-gadgets-plugin-6.4.2/gadgets/filter-results-gadget.xml

  <![CDATA[
          #requireContext("com.atlassian.jira.gadgets:autocomplete")
          #requireContext("jira.webresources:issue-table")
          #requireResource("com.atlassian.jira.gadgets:g-filter-results")
          #includeResources()
  
          <script type="text/javascript">
  

• jira-gadgets-plugin-7.0.5/gadgets/filter-results-gadget.xml

  <![CDATA[
          #requireResource("com.atlassian.jira.gadgets:autocomplete")
          #requireResource("jira.webresources:issue-table")
          #requireResource("com.atlassian.jira.gadgets:g-filter-results")
          #includeResources()
  
          <script type="text/javascript">
  

According to https://stash.atlassian.com/projects/JIRASERVER/repos/jira/commits/2ec9538e19dda08a44ac82dd20c7c05e4da363e2#jira-components/jira-plugins/jira-gadgets-plugin/src/main/resources/gadgets/filter-results-gadget.xml, the reason the change was implemented was because the gadget requires web-resources correctly from opensocial and none of it were contexts but resources and it shouldn't have worked.

However since the gadget is no longer using any contexts, it's no longer possible to inject Resources into this gadget

Suggested Solution

Implement an existing or new context
