    'none' value should be allowed in field semantics/workflow and sparated from Kanban semantic 'backlog'
    When 'status' is a non-mandatory field, the value 'none' should be addressed in semantics (e.g. I'd like to define it as 'open' even if blank) and in workflow (e.g. I'd like it to be refined after blank submission, with some conditions about who can do so and comments). 'None' is currently allowed in field dependencies only.
    It's all the more needed as 'none' is currently, AFAIK, the only way to put artifacts in the 'backlog' of a Kanban. So the semantics should also allow to define some selectbox values as 'backlog', the same way as 'open' and 'closed'.

    It seems that not being 'open' as per the semantic prevents the artifact from being available in the top backlog of the Scrum planning dashboard.
    Then, currently, a "none"-valued field can't be flagged as an 'open' status in semantics. Thus, it can't be backlogged in Scrum.
    If I'm correct, this would be a major incompatibility between Kanban and Scrum dashboards, since "none" value is currently the only way to put artifacts in the "backlog" column of Kanban.
