      As an administrator, it would be valuable to have the option to have Epic Name always default to the value of the Summary field (since they are often the same), upon Epic Creation. Currently, this cannot be done via workflow, as the only way to do this would be via post function, which would require the transition to take place before the post function was triggered.

            I like Jira, but the team's tone deafness for completing sensible sane features is maddening.  

            If one looks at https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSW-11128, one can see a terse answer.

            "Many thanks for reporting this issue, however this is not something we plan to add to JIRA Agile at this time."

            Jira, when you leave out sensible defaults, it adds a lot of busy work and makes the product lack fit and finish and look slap-dash. The product needs to look at user productivity by eliminating clicks and typing as much as possible.  We are all extremely busy.
