Edit screen does not load in IE11

Summary:

Hitting Edit for Service Desk enabled projects in IE 11 causes the browser to hang. Any other JIRA project issues work without issue.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open any issue in Service Desk Project (from agent's issue view page)
2. Click Edit
3. JIRA will appear to be loading the edit screen, but will sit and spin on load.
