fix lint issues

I submitted a draft revision for this. It's not quite complete yet, but anyone interested can take a look at it.

I didn't know columns could be deleted... I thought they were only ever hidden.

Maybe the "move to column" rule should only apply if the task is already assigned to the project, if it isn't, it gets ignored.

I think this will work out technically but it feels a bit nebulous to me, in that the rule isn't really clear about what it's doing as it's very dependent on the project workboard that gets triggered. For example some workboards might be roadmaps/planning and want to have columns for e.g. inbox, backlog, next_version, etc. but other workboards might be categorical in nature rather than planning and there would be no overlap between what column types exist on those boards. I think a solution revolving around Project-based rules should be investigated - for example is it reasonable/possible to have a herald rule on a project that says, "when a task on this project board changes status to: x, then move to column y"?

Maybe the herald rule should only apply to specific objects? I think there’s a concept like this already where certain rules can only be made at the object level and not global level, possibly for similar reasons.

This describes how to set up an IRC nick for matrix users: https://gist.github.com/LorbusChris/d44a5dd4671796cbf8528ca133dd909b

Just having a dropdown here would be enough, I guess?

I started to implement this as a new herald action. There is just one major problem. I would have to load all columns from every project and present them to the user. A user could then select one specific column of one specific project for his herald action... This seems kind of pointless to me. It's way too specific to be usable.

I’ll note here that I’m going to work on creating projects for some of the prototypes that do get used.

@TitanNano additional context around the development style that causes this issue to come up would be useful to include here.

Matrix - not sure

Are there any thoughts about a matrix channel? It would also be possible to bridge it to IRC.
