Hide Goals, Initiatives and Releases with "Will Not Do" Status from selection

What is the challenge?

High level items marked "will not do" are still available for selection

What is the impact?

It makes it harder to search and find work that is currently relevant, creates additional noise and effort for colleagues

Describe your idea

In the same way that once items are "Shipped" they disappear from lists and views, items in "Will not do" categories should also disappear from selection (ie I cannot add a feature/release to an Initiative in 'Will not do status") and default views. Ideally similar to 'Closed' items in Github, you cannot add to them without changing the status back to an open item.

      This similar idea from 2018 implies that work in the "Will not do" category is already hidden from selection, however testing showed that is not the case (I can link features, releases etc to Initiatives marked as 'Will not do' and these show up for selection like any other record type.
