make card name referenceable in WQL

Idea

 

It may be that we don't want to do this for the case given here, 'cause maybe people should always use Pointers for this sort of case, but there may be other user stories where this would be useful to have.

 

E.g. right now in tickets, the +status card has open, closed, documenting, etc. as plain text. Those cards have hard-coded searches to find the relevant cards. To automate that (as with tickets for item+*right+*structure), we could:

 

...add syntax/functionality to WQL to make it possible to reference a card's name, something like:

 

{"match": "_selfname"}

 

_leftname, _rightname

 

 

agree about the need. don't particularly like this solution.


What are some other ways to do it? Mm, allow inclusion in WQL:

{"match": "make card name referenceable in WQL+discussion"}

Write a user story instead?
