If you want to change the status using the UI (not via a "quick action") do you literally edit the title? That is, the semantics is driven from the title string itself? Or do you do something else in the UI?

|
| Two other facets of the WIP state are:
|
| 1. WIP MRs can't be merged via the UI. (Marge also honours this) 2. The
| list of MRs can be filtered by the WIP status (which is that I use it
| for).
