Yeah, probably wise. ;) I just made exactly this error at #2097925-4: Rename "Edit" to "Update" for consistency with the "Update this issue" button

There's also talk of displaying parent/child relationships as a tree, which would require even more fancy validation (to ensure you don't get cycles and you've got an actual tree, not a directed graph). See #1975806: Provide a way to represent the relationships between issues in a tree list format. for more on that.

Untagging since this isn't really a regression. We didn't have issue relations in D6.
