We recently switched from GitHub / HuBoard to Phabricator, and overall I'm really happy, but the one thing that I (and the other engineers on my team) sorely miss is the ability to change columns from within the task. It is really awkward to comment on the task but not be able to change columns without swiching back to the workboard.

Right now, the main concern is trained employees moving cards on the workboard and accidentally changing priorities (due to sorting by priority), so I agree that improving the UI would be the higher priority. In the meantime, perhaps we'll patch our instance with https://secure.phabricator.com/T8135#130563 to prevent the surprise priority changes.

The concern that @magcius mentions is that we (Endless Computers) only want team leads to have permission to triage priority. We set that up by restricting who has access to forms that allow editing priority. But the priority-sorted workboard defeats that form-based protection. Is there some other way to configure who has the ability to triage priority?
