Collections for Tasks

Steffen Bleher

Allow to organize tasks in collections to sort them into different areas.

I'll prefer to have the option to use tags as another way to contextualize tasks.

Benjamin Maggs

Could it also be possible to use tags as contexts for tasks? I don't think you can do that at the moment.

Benjamin Maggs: Tasks have tag support :)

Thanks Beth! I can now add tags as context to tasks - I wasn't able to yesterday.
Edit - I tested a little more. When using the add new task modal, you can enter tags into the context field (but they are actually added to the tag field), but when editing an existing task you can't add tags into the context field, they have to go in the tag field, that's why I thought they weren't working.
These tags appear in the task view, but I can't see a way to use them to filter or group the task list. E.g., my work is split between customer relationships and general IT tasks - Having the context view separate out tasks which belong to each customer is really helpful, but it would also be great if I could have a group of all tasks tagged with 'IT', so that I can focus on those when I have my technology manager hat on! Thank you so much your your help!

Nice to have, but I think you can achieve something similar using Tags.

Agreed — it would pull tasks into the perennial "collections vs tags" quandary. :) But I do think that collections would be a helpful layer of organization.
