Hi Andrew, things look to me as follows ...
ONLY the weekly goal seems to get inherited to sbtask, but neither monthly goal nor yearly goal. But it's NOT ONLY the red "!" that is inherited, but also the goal itself. I'm creating a task and a subtask and I'm marking the (parent) task as weekly goal. I'm getting the red "!" for both taks (parent and sub-task) but only for the parent task you'll find "weekly goal" in properties pane properly activated (not for the sub-task). However ... define a simple rule for auto-formatting (goal=week) and have an icon be set for all tasks that apply to that auto-formatting rule ... you'll get both tasks (parent and sub-task) be iconized (means to me ... both task are "internally marked" as weekly goals). According to me all this is not correctly implemented. (a) I do not like the fact at all, that subtasks are automatically marked as weekly goals once their parent is a weekly goal. (b) It's at least confusing to having sub-tasks automatically marked as weekly goals while the relevant button in properties pane indecates that gould = none.
