Ah - I see what you mean. Yes, that would be useful. The simplest solution
would be to have automation to move the issue from the "To do" column to
the "In progress" column if the issue satisfies the "linked:pr" GitHub
query. You can already do this dynamically to see a subset of the backlog
by just typing "linked:pr" into the "filter cards" text box on [1], but
making that the default view show these two separate categories of issue
(those with an associated PR, and those without) visually may be best for
clarity. Any thoughts on this Ariel?

Cheers,

James
