Description

When I move an issue to a different project change its tracker I get two submit buttons to choose from:

  1. Move
  2. Move and Follow

The button I want is always Move and follow because I generally need to edit the issue after moving it:

  1. If I moved it to a new project the categories and user lists will often be different and I need to check and/or change those values.
  2. If I just changed the tracker it is normally to enable other behaviour and I need to set Status or add sub tasks.

Even when I want to change nothing it is nice to have confirmation that it moved successfully. When I edit an Issue it saves back to the issue display page - I think it is reasonable that Move would do the same, and so I suggest that Move and Follow is what people want to do >90% of the time, and that the times they mistakenly click Move instead they regret - it brings you to a list view of the project you were in, which is generally not a useful place to be.

In this case I believe less is more.
