Hi Dwight, Thank you, I now understand the usability : in case you have a huge list, and want to do a partial review. But I think that a task should automatically be considered as reviewed if whatever interaction has been done with it (move, rename, change property, etc.) and, I remain wanting to ad a dynamic property "belongs to xxx view" in order to empower my filters!
