      Attempting to bulk move a few issues, I found that the field value mapping page in the move wizard insists that I change the Reporter of all issue to a single value.

            I wanted to move Issues in the same project to another Issue Type. The move dialog insists on specifying a Reporter. But I do not want to change the reporter in any case. Why do I get the message? It also asks me that the mover needs Modify Reporter permission. I do not understand that. Happens in JIRA 4.3.4. Any idea? Also Assignee is affected. Retain value does not help...

            probably fixed in 3.4
