Is this a feature for the backend or frontend?

Frontend

What would you like?

I would like to create a linked list across boards so they show the same cards on both boards.

Why is this needed?

It would improve easy usability by enabling drag and drop movement between boards that have a lot of cards moved between them.
An example would be a "backlog" board that has the "Todo" list linked with the "Todo" list on the "current tasks" board.
The current workflow is to click on the edit icon of a card, select move, select the boards and the list and click "Move". That is 7 clicks.
If you move items regularly from your backlog to your current tasks lists this is cumbersome. Having a linked list would allow easy drag and drop linkage while avoiding clutter in your main board.
