  • DnD between tags and tasks:
    • task on tag, tag on task => task gets a new tag
    • task on “Tasks without tags” or vice versa => tasks is removed all its tags

Bugs:

Permanent tags

When there is no longer active tasks associated to a tag, it disappear and it is very annoying to have to re-create same tags several times over a long time of use.

It would be great to put an option which enable a persistent mode for tags.

There must be option to use default behavior in 0.2.4 => hide them

I think we will need to have remove option in right click menu

in case of removing => we dont need reset tag menu item
