When completing a task in MLO desktop, I think the "next review"
checkbox should be automatically unchecked. Usually you don't want to
review tasks any more after they have been finished.

Hi, Christoph.
I actually disagree with this suggestion. A lot of people use MLO in very
different ways, and the design of MLO has tried to make it a useful tool to
people with many different methods of managing their tasks.

I don't know why anyone would want to review finished tasks. But I'm not so
confident that no one would do it. Certainly not confident enough to take it
away from everyone.

Another issue is, can you achieve the view you need without this change? If
you have a "Review" view that's displaying completed tasks that you don't
want, just go into the view's "Action Filter" and change it from, for
example, "All" to "Active" and the uncompleted tasks will be gone.

On second though, I agree with you, Dwight. It's easy enough to change
the "Show completed" filter for the default "Review" view, and the
default setting of "Recent" seems reasonable enough.
