Awkward workflow

[richcowan]

If you look at the list of tasks and you edit a task it leaves you on the edit task screen. Then how do you get back to the list of tasks?

It is not easy.

It would be better if completing the "edit task" action would return you to the screen you were in when you first clicked "edit task". The update message of course would still be useful to include.

I have committed the necessary changes as revision r949. Could you try it out and see if it works as you would expect?

Currently, no message is given after a successful modification (errors are still output). This is for the simple reason that I don't like passing message context in requests.

I thought of adding a simple "messaging" feature, a push_message(message, user) and a pop_messages(). After a successful modification, for example, the update message is added via push_message(); pop_messages is called at each pageview, and any unread messages are displayed. Would that be useful?
