These reproduction steps don't work for me, and don't make sense given how the software works. If you believe you have a set of reproduction steps, can you walk through them step-by-step in more detail so I can reproduce the issue?

It seems to be a fairly recent problem so there must be some code change that started triggering it. The worst part, IMO, is that the workboard breaks in a not-entirely-obvious way instead of falling back to a default query. It took me a while to debug the issue the first time it occurred.

Oct 1 2018, 11:34 PM · Workboards
epriestley added a comment to T13208: Workboard queries may vanish or fail to persist (spooky).

There should be no code anywhere in Phabricator to delete saved queries. The expectation is that they are never deleted or garbage collected because they may have been embedded in other pages, sent via email, etc., and deleting a saved query will break any use of the link in a permanent/external context. The table is expected to grow without bound, although at a slow enough rate that it does not create a maintainability issue.

Any progress on this issue? Agreed with @dariusz that this is my number one pet peeve. This is a pretty large omission from bulk editing capabilities for a column. I can set a task to move to a different column when I am commenting in a task. I'd expect the ability to do the same bulk process on a column of tasks, even if I could only move those tasks within the same workboard. Dragging and dropping tasks individually is extremely time consuming when I have to move tasks between columns.
