i also find it very annoying to have to select task type every time.
the simple rule is that the common case should be optimized. if you
make the common case harder and the uncommon cases easier,
on balance it becomes worse.
hope in the next version this behavior is removed or at least made an
option.

on the other hand, Appigo has made tags ANDable again, as i have
requested. many thanks for implementing this request.
