"Move to Done" button appears regardless of whether the transition is valid

    Description

      The workflow we use for Scrum adds an additional "Verified" step after Resolved, and the columns on the Rapidboard are set up to have In Progress and Resolved as partially complete, followed by Verified as the state for the "Done" column.

      There is no direct transition from In Progress to Verified, requiring two steps to move from In Progress to Resolved to Verified. However, when all subtasks are complete on a story (that is, in the Done column), the "Move to Done" transition button appears even though the parent Story is still In Progress.

      Attempting to click Move to Done brings up a lightbox indicating there's no valid transition.

      We can easily workaround this by moving the Story to Resolved first, but it seems like there's a better experience that could be put together.

      This seems to relate potentially to GHS-6063.

      It should be possible to set the behaviour of the parent story to one of the either:

      • be able to pre-select the status that a parent should be transitioned to when all subtasks are complete;
      • disable the automated parent transition altogether.
