There are times when I'm doing a search at http://drupal.org/project/issues/drupal and then when looking at the page of results think to myself "Hey, I'm pretty sure I posted a comment to the one I'm looking for." It would be awesome if under the "Status" column I could pick "- My issues -" (or maybe a separate checkbox since it doesn't feel quite right under "Status") to further filter down the list, rather than having to re-start my search at http://drupal.org/project/issues/user.

Hrmm, not sure about this. At http://drupal.org/project/issues/search/drupal there's already the "Participant" field (so you can search for your own, or anyone else's "my issues" for that matter). The goal all along was to make http://drupal.org/project/issues/drupal not insanely over-complicated and overwhelming for novice issue queue users, and for power users who do a lot of slicing and dicing to just live at the advanced search page.

Plus, the definition of "my issues" should change: http://3281d.com/2009/03/27/death-to-subscribe-comments

Tempted to at least "postpone" this (awaiting #34496: [meta] Add Flag module to allow users to subscribe/unsubscribe without posting a comment), if not "won't fix" (based on the fact you should just be using advanced search). But, let's discuss more before I make any hasty decisions like that. ;)

p.s. If we do add this to the "basic" issue pages, this would have to be a separate filter, both to avoid UI confusion and to be possible to implement in views...

I often try to rediscover an issue when all I know is that I posted, and it had something to do with X... or one of it's synonyms.

Oddly enough, my eyes glaze over every time I've looked at the Advanced Search link. This might call for a shortcut keyword.

I like that idea o lot! ...as a separate widget though.

The "participant" field seems to only respect comments, not follows. I couldn't find a more relevant issue than this.

Ultimately, if we've participated in any way, it would be useful to be able to easily search a record of our activities of participation, comments, updates, follows, likes, whatever's to find an issue that we remember touching.

Having an easy way to get back to an issue we touched would be good.

I think this is just a dupe of #2140259: The "Participant" filter tracks comments instead of "follow", participant is supposed to track all of that, it's just broken.
