Actually it works this way now: 1) Completed copy of the original task is created below the original. 2) The original task is moved to the end of the list. (this will be the option in the future)
It means that you actually completed a part of the original task and the completed copy of it has the today's creation date. So you can probably use this date for statistics. I think that it is logical that original task should not be completed itself but only it's copy which just created. The original task is completed when the task is finished completely. Let me know you thoughts on this. A.
