The core issue I have with that model is that it defines context=mm, and declares context=task to be invalid, while in reality, both views are perfectly valid, useful, and in use. That redefinition of context is demonstrably harmful when applied to scheduler related controllers, rendering a substantial portion of to be managed objects completely unmanageable. You (collectively) know that full well. AFAIKT, there is only one viable option, and that is to continue to allow both. Whether you like the duality or not (who would), it's deeply embedded in what's under the controllers, and won't go away. I'll now go try a little harder while you ponder (or pop) this thought bubble, see if I can set a new personal best at the art of ignoring.
