+ [2020-03-20T22:16:59Z] jfoster Are there any ways to add meta data to an issue?
+ [2020-03-20T22:17:35Z] jfoster Apart from labels, milestones and other items available from the UI?
+ [2020-03-20T22:18:13Z] jfoster For example, if you wanted to attach structured data to an issue, like json.
+ [2020-03-20T22:19:32Z] jfoster I guess you could write to a comment on the issue, some machine-readable marker and then throw the data in there. It would just be kind of ugly in the UI and could be edited or removed by someone.
