Change default operator for text format custom fields from "is" to "contains"
0%
Description
When a user adds a filter for text format custom fields on "Issues" page, default operator for the filter is "is". But I think it should be "contains" because the default operator for other filters for text objects such as "Subject" and "description" is "contains". And in my experience, we often use partial match than exact matches for text fields.
From the viewpoint of consistency and convenience, I suggest changing the default operator for text format custom fields from "is" to "contains".

I think that few people search by exact match.
I am searching by always change the operator to "contains".
