Bug when using priority mark first in smart add

gomibushi says:

1)
If you try to smart add something with the priority first, like: "!1 ^tomorrow #tag Text" then the resulting task will be correct as far as priority and date goes, but the priority and date will not be removed from the "body" of the task, the task text.
2)
Also, if you try to add this "!1 #tag text" then the resulting task will be priority 1 (correct), but the tag is strangely "tagtext" and the body will be "!1 #tag text"

Yes, this is true: you need to add the task name, then the due date, then the other properties (which can be added in any order).

This is just incoherent.

Either you parse smart tags and remove them after parsing - or you ignore them and leave them in the task-text.

I also (instinctively) add new tasks by first specifying their priorities, then their due date and lastly the task-text.

This needs to be fixed, it is just ugly, incoherent and counter-intuitive.

I understand where Nicola and gomibushi are coming from, but it is intuitive to me to proceed in the order suggested by Andrew.

FYIW - - the locations only work for me if I enter the location information immediately after due date and before other properties.
