Discussion: Prevent editing of Jira issues

[Rachel Wright]

One of my customers wants to prevent Jira issues from being edited after creation.  While this is possible using a Permission Scheme, there are pros and cons for restricting the edit ability.  But before I share my opinion of this idea, I wanted to hear yours!  

Discussion questions:

• What problems could this solve?
• What problems might this cause? 
• Are there certain use cases this would work well for (or not work for)?
• How would you accomplish this?

Ready...discuss!
