Some customers want new issues that are raised to appear at the top of the planning board, currently to achieve this you have to select the top-most bug so when a new card is created it appears above the highlighted bug.

It should be possible to have a default rank set so new cards will appear at that rank automatically. Currently people are trying (understandably) to edit the default value of the Rank custom field (GHS-2312, GHS-2590) but it throws a stack trace (or did up until GH 5.4 anyway). A separate option within GreenHopper's settings to configure this would be great.
