Follow-Up Tickets - Is there a way to manually link a ticket as a "Follow-Up" to another ticket?

I'm hoping someone else has run into this before and might have a solution. Currently, if multiple tickets from the same customer are about the same topic, we have the option to merge tickets, but it would be more useful to be able to designate a ticket as a “Follow-Up” to a prior ticket, allowing agents to quickly see that this is a repeat issue. 

Currently, customers can generate follow-up tickets when replying to a closed ticket, or an agent can create a follow-up ticket from a closed ticket, but there is no way to create the “follow-up” linkage manually. 

Has anyone else run into this use case?

 

Thanks!

I'm also wondering about this. For example, I'll get an email that I'll forward to our Zendesk or the customer will submit the ticket as a brand new ticket rather than as a reply to the original one, so the follow up exists at that point but it's not actually linked to the original ticket that it is a follow up to. There should be a way to link existing tickets up rather having to link them up from the start…
