Adding categories to tasks

[Bill Myers 459]

I'd love to see the capability to assign categories to tasks. I know that for most use cases, organizing tasks by project makes the most sense. And Evernote tasks work great for this. But I practice GTD, which recommends organizing tasks by "context": the person, place or tool required to accomplish an action. The ability to add that kind of metadata to tasks while still having them located in a project note would be all I'd need to adopt this feature.

It's not the sort of thing that will cause me to stop using Evernote -- I use it for so many things, and I love it. But boy, it would be cool to have this feature and be able to use tasks for my use case.

I'm aware Evernote can't accommodate every desire each and every customer has. But it can never hurt to ask.

I'd love to see tasks evolve.

Wow. Thank you for sharing this. I'm not entirely sure how all this would work or whether it would fit my use case but -- I'm intrigued to say the least. I think a more robust tasks feature would be amazing both for me personally and for Evernote as a product. I can't wait until some of this is unveiled to the wider public for feedback.
