Support for URL custom fields
URL custom fields (read-only) are now supported in the improved interface. This is useful when surfacing links that are relevant to the issues in the plan, like feature specification pages.

Feature enhancements
We've been doing a bit of gardening and made the following enhancements:
- When you group issues by teams or components, the groupings will now be sorted in alphabetical order.
- Only the releases of these filtered projects will be displayed in the timeline when you filter your roadmap by projects.
- We've improved how progress is calculated and displayed in the roadmap.
Plan permission enhancements
We're streamlining auto-scheduling with the permission enhancements rolled out in Portfolio for Jira 3.4 and Portfolio for Jira 3.6. Starting with Portfolio for Jira 3.7, when auto-scheduling a plan, the issues are being auto-scheduled based on the plan permissions that you have. See Permissions in Portfolio for Jira for more details.
