Reset Completed

tvjames says:
When I complete a task using the "after" recurrence, the # of times postponed carries over. I don't think this is the right/expected behavior. Once I complete it, the next occurence is a new task, which I haven't postponed. I would expect the postponement count to have been reset to zero.

Or offer the ability to reset the counter to zero without having to delete and create a new task.

Not a bug here. I mean, this probably could be addressed in the code, but it's not RTM problem, it's browser thing.
Looks like the # of postpones gets cached in the browser.

Create a dummy task, set recurrence, postpone couple times, you will see # when you click the "i" icon.
Complete it, new task will get created. Check "i" again, # did not reset. Close the popup and reload page with Ctrl+F5, check again, counter resets.

I did some testing. After each step you can export your data and track the tasks in JSON file (remember that there's going to be more than one as it shows completed too!).
Original task "id": "1201785527", "postponed": 3,
Newer task "id": "1201786168", "postponed": 0
