Description Phillip Gardner CLA 2011-04-20 12:46:47 EDT 
Build Identifier: M20100211-1343

I am using the XML editor to edit a DocBook XML file.
BTW, I really find the XML editor to be very helpful!

I want to move some paragraphs from one chapter to another chapter.
The lines of text are already marked with several tasks.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. select several lines of text which are marked with one or more tasks
2. do a cut
3. move the insertion pointer to another place in the file and do a paste

Result:
The Tasks are lost.  They do not show up in the editor.
They also no longer show up in the Tasks view.

That behavior is common to all text editors, and simply the way it's designed as far as I know.

Perhaps this should be treated as an enhancement request?
