What’s new in GitLab 18.10 for Agile planning?

Work items list unifies epics/issues; saved views store custom filters/sorts for quick team access.

How do saved views work in GitLab 18.10?

Customize list (filters, sort, display), save, share — perfect for repeatable workflows like backlog grooming.

Possibly — old epic/issue lists change; expect adjustment, but future-proofing via work items customization.

Tired of GitLab's epic-issue split? 18.10 promises one list to rule them all. But after 20 years watching Valley hype, I'm asking: does it deliver?
