Description Chris McLaren CLA 2002-05-31 11:08:08 EDT 
The task view should be split into a task view and a problems view. Currently 
these are merged which raises a number of issues. Delete is confusing as 
problems are read only. Filtering and presentation is confusing as problems 
don't have priorities and tasks don't have severities. Users interested in 
navigating build problems that otherwise don't make any use of the task 
functionality could do without seeing the new task button always at the 
forefront of the ui, or other task specific functionality in the context menus, 
and visa versa for users that like to log tasks to themselves but otherwise use 
other methods for navigating errors. the filter dialog is unnecessarily complex 
because of this forced merging as well.
