The issue list is very convenient to use.
However, currently the avatar shown is always the creator of the issue.
In many workflows, the assignee is the person actually responsible for the issue, and this is more meaningful information to display at a glance. When there are multiple contributors opening issues but tasks are later reassigned, the current view is less helpful.
My Suggestion:
Add an option ONLY for Issue to display the assignee’s avatar instead of (or in addition to) the creator’s avatar in the issue list panel.
