Release Summary

This release brings some new opt-in features such as the "only Jira Administrators can delete options" setting ([CE-14]). We did a lot of optimizations under the hood and some tiny bugfixes.

Under the Admin Settings Page you can now enable the "only Jira Administrators can delete options" setting.

This will render the delete option button disabled for non-administrators in the Field Editor. We display a short tooltip to explain to the user why the delete button is disabled.
