In my understanding, setting a default issue template is not possible in our installation (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-desktop/-/issues/182#note_972139 ) so basically nobody will ever manually click that template dropdown thing anyway (I've never done that myself).
Ah, I suppose as that is a paid-for feature, it's not likely to be enabled for us. That's a shame!
The process looks relatively straightforward, but would probably have to be against a single component, maybe gnome-user-docs, or possibly a new product solely for general documentation feedback, to have a single link that can be injected, instead of the docs-feedback list.Sounds a bit similar like the "Get rid of a security mailing list and make people file tickets" past discussion in Release Team. Though in this case... could the project/label parameter in the GitLab URL be adjusted by taking the project name segment in the page URL?
I suppose so, yes. It would need a bit of intelligence in library-web (I guess) to inject the module name, but I suppose that, if we are not able to add default templates, at least filing an issue against the correct component would be a good start.
