Test Execution - Create Subtask

When I'm executing my test cycle from the the test player and I run into a defect, I need to create a WIP defect. Upon clicking the gear icon and then selecting create subtask, Zephyr brings me to a search parent issue popup. Why doesn't that default to the parent issue that is linked to the test cycle? So many extra clicks and it would save a lot of time for people who test several test cycles on a given day or week. Additionally, when you click next and get the create subtask popup, it typically defaults to subtask or release, which 9 out of 10 times, it will always be a WIP defect that needs creation when testing is in flight.

Solution: default parent issue to the one linked in traceability and default create subtask issue type to WIP defect.

    Another nice to have would be that when filling out the create subtask fields, fields that can be pulled from the parent issue should auto pull, such as component.
