Currently, you are able to add a dependency to a task. When adding a dependency, you can link it to another task stating that it’s “Blocked by” or “Blocking”. However, what if a task is just “Related to”/“Linked to” another task? It could be that you have a feature that requires several tasks so you want to link them together. You can start on any of the tasks; none of them requires the others to be done. Thus, the tasks are not per se blocking each other. However, in order for the feature to be completed, you need to complete all of the tasks. This is the reason for my suggestion of adding another option for dependencies between tasks.
