4a45e8b1b9fd just checked out the purchasable option, thanks for posting.  However - 2.5k for 60 users!!! That is just not tenable!

Also require it for backlog health.  Want to be able to have a custom field for Backlog status, and then map a separate backlog refinement board to that status.

There appears to be a purchasable option at least:  https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211683/comala-canvas-for-jira  

What this issue requests would be tremendously useful.

We want this too, but for Cloud.  Is there a similar request for Cloud?  This would solve so many problems we have with board configuration.  The way it is now, we end up adding a zillion statuses just so we can make the board columns work for us.  Having the ability to configure the columns based on a filter would eliminate the need for us to create so many statuses, which makes our workflows more complex and harder to maintain.

We also need this, please reopen the ticket or provides us a reason for not reopening please.
The goal is to provide a view based on other aspect than the status. By example, we have added a custom field "Business Value" with values "XL/M/L/S" and we wish a board to manage them. So, having a visual board and the ability to move from one colum to another with the team will be very helpful. Thanks

The very inelegant work around has been to create additional swimlanes but that blows the board out badly. We've got products that need to be tested in multiple environments and don't want to have to create 4 different 'In QA' statuses so we have an 'environment tested in' field which could be used if columns could be done on queries like swimlanes can be.

We need this too. Did anybody get anywhere with this?

I need it too for backlog health

I am still looking for workarounds, could anybody help me?

I need this too ! I want to create a board where I can map horizontally by Sprint (kind of like a timeline). Any workarounds for this one ?
