Agreed.

Or so the driver inherently supports multiple list views, etc.

Ya know, in writing my email to submit that fix, I kept rewriting a few
paragraphs, and finally decided to just ditch them and be less verbose.
But what I was attempting to talk about in those paragraphs was that the
DataTree driver needed to be rewritten, and possibly even Nag_Driver.
Nag_Driver::singleton() ought to be able to accept
$GLOBALS['display_tasklists'] straight, and other modifications to hide the
creation of complex views from the programmer.

Peace out,

Derek
