I think I originally proposed this, here's the scenario I'm worried about:

- I have a task in a shared collection which isn't sharing triage
status.  I mark the task as DONE, because I think I'm done with it.

- Someone comes along and adds comments in the task that change its
meaning, so it's no longer DONE

- I'm looking at and changing triage status for items in the LATER
section, and the NOW section is scrolled off the screen, when auto-sync
happens.  Because the task is updated by sharing, it moves to my NOW
section and becomes unread.  As soon as I hit triage, it'll go back to DONE.

- When I hit triage, I don't want to lose the fact that the task has
been updated by sending it back to the DONE section, because I haven't
looked at it yet.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
