Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

If a contributor submits a good question or comment then it's improtant that it's addressed. e.g. a contributor has doubts about their contributions and ask a question about it. They may choose to not contribute further until their uncertainty has been addressed, however tasks with and without tasks look the same and there is no indication which seperates them.

Currently it is difficult to find which tasks have comments on them via the task selection panel. You must check their histories, or there may be some way to obtain the task numbers via the API. The first is cumbersome and the latter is not obvoius for the vast majority of users.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • For each task comment to have an indicator icon if someone has submitted a comment on it.
  • Have some indication of this when multitask validating
  • add the ability to filter for, or sort by tasks with comments e.g. I could sort by this if I was interested in answering contributors' questions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Checking hostories and using the API.
