Re: [platform-ui-dev] Recombine Problems and Tasks Views

Both of these views are internal so there are no compatibility issues to 
worry about in upcoming releases. The feedback we are getting from many 
users is that they prefer the split so we will be leaving it as is for 
3.0. I personally prefer the split as I find the tasks to be unneccessary 
clutter.

We may consider revisiting this in 3.1 and promoting some of the classes 
to API then but not in the 3.0 timeframe.

[platform-ui-dev] Recombine Problems and Tasks Views







Several developers commented on their disappointment that a new View 
(Tasks) has been introduced in 3.0, which increases clutter. It does not 
make working with problems/tasks easier than the 2.1 solution.  I 
suggested an alternative solution which is obviously much better and 
scalable, but would have to wait until the next release to be implemented. 
 So why hasn't the current attempt been backed out of 3.0?  Once these two 
views are released, it will be impossible to implement the better solution 
in a future compatible release.
