Description

Boolean custom field can have three values; "Yes", "No" and " (blank, or to say, not specified) " if the filed is not specified as "required".

I think it is OK.

But I found that both "No" and " (blank, or to say, not specified) " are grouped under same name (label) of "none" collapse/expand indicator lines when I specified "Group results by" the boolean field which is not defined as "required".

The tickets are grouped in 2 groups and it is right I think.

But both groups have "none" indicated in collapse/expand indicator line. It is not a good idea, I think.
Boolean field which is not set as "required" contains 3 values, "Yes", "No" and " (blank, or to say, not specified) ", so it is better to be grouped in different labels.

Could it be changed the label of "none" for " (blank, or to say, not specified) " to "null", "No Value", or" (blank) " ?

Kind regards,

Screen capture
Here is a screen capture of query-result grouped by boolean field. In the picture, Boolean1optional is a boolean filed without "required" specification. You could see 2 groups with "none" group label.

Notes on Label Texts
It is simple to reflect the values to the label texts, ie. Yes/No/null(or "blank").

Notes on translation
I am afraid translation texts may be affected when changing the label texts. For example, "none" is translated to "なし" in Japanese.
