<ul></ul><p>There are many areas today where displayed items are filtered, in fact, its everywhere. Issue are filtered in the roadmap, time entries are filtered in the reports, ... As for time entries, there is even a separate permission to allow user to only see their own time entries.</p>
<p>Mentioning that there are other objects which are hidden might result in an information leak if not done <em>very</em> carefully. Depending on the hidden entries and the way the hint is displayed, users might be able to deduct some information which are hidden right now. Since users can adjust the issue filters, they could e.g. deduct which issue has additional hidden time entries booked.</p>
<p>As such, about the only way to implement this securely would be to always add a generic hint that there <em>might</em> be other entries, regardless of whether there actually are other entries or not.</p>
