I installed the tasklist module for the first time and found the "create new task" dialog to be too short lived. It only allows the user to enter a task one at a time. So you bring up the dialog, enter a new task, press "OK" then the window closes. There is a lot of extra mouse clicks and mouse movement in adding many tasks. I would like to see the dialog enhanced to allow the user to add multiple tasks without closing the dialog. Maybe change the "OK" button to "Add" and keep the dialog up until the user closes it.
Perhaps a checkbox near the bottom could control the behavior of (and label on) the OK button. It might say something like [ ] Enter multiple tasks When toggling the checkbox (which is off by default), the OK button toggles between "OK" and "Add", and pressing the button only closes the dialog when the checkbox is not selected.
