Multiple task selection "cursors"

alshipman says:

When you select a task with the mouse, then move the cursor with the keyboard shortcuts the "cursor" i.e the yellow task, begins moving from the last position it was moved via the keyboard, rather than from the mouse selected item.

So when you scroll down a list thats longer than a page using the mouse - and select an item - then go to move around with the keyboard - at first you can't see the cursor moving.

Is this a feature or a bug :) ?

The keyboard "cursor" (yellow highlight) is different from the mouse hover (also yellow highlight) -- moving the mouse cannot change the cursor's position. Sorry this isn't clear, as they're both the same colour -- it was designed more for using the mouse or the keyboard, not both at once. We'll look into this and see if there's a better way to indicate cursor position, so this isn't confusing when using both the keyboard and mouse.

I think having a preview box for hover action would be more user friendly in that sense. So when you hover with mouse only the preview box would change, (show details of task) And when you click, selected task would set. And edition options can only be in selection box, not the preview box. If you want to change something you click it to set it as selected.
