Tasks: New tasks go to bottom of list

[filipeabperes]

In a list that is not sorted by priority (custom order, set by the user, since I'm using a Google Tasks list), when a new task is added it is sent to the bottom of the list. This is pretty bad, because for large lists one has to scroll all the way down and then slowly pull it up.

Seems like a simple fix, or maybe just an extra option in settings.

I agree!

Agreed, this is quite a nuisance for me too.

While the issue is not solved, I've found an interesting solution, kinda taking advantage of (what I suppose is) another bug. When you create a new task it goes to the end of the list. If you scroll down to the end, grab the newly created item, drag it up to the top of the screen (above the top menu bar) and drop it instantly, it will be placed at the top of the list instantly, without you having to wait for the list to scroll to the top.

+1 Since I use manual order with Google Tasks, and often have quite long lists, this is a dealbreaker for me.

On the subject of ordering our tasks, let me add the various orderings that
people may want:
Most recently created on top
Last ones created on top
Alphabetical
Reverse Alphabetical
Priority
Reverse priority
Due Date

That's nice. Tasks supports all of them!
