Great point, Tona.

Fortunately, there's a way in Jira to put in task dependencies
already. If you click on an existing issue, then click on "Link this
issue to another issue" from the left-hand toolbar, you can create a
relationship (e.g., a dependency) between that issue and another one
in Jira.

Cheers,
James
