Finally figured it out...in case anyone wants to know how to add observers to tasks on OpenVAS v7...
omp -iX "<modify_task task_id='task-id-is-in-these-single-quotes'> <observers>list-of-space-delimited-already-defined-users</observers></modify_task>" In order to add to the list your command must add all PREVIOUS as well as the NEW users. The process does not append, it overwrites.

On v6, on the Task config page, I could add the observers to the task. With v7, that config option is not there...at least I don't think it's there. If I'm overlooking something, please point me in the right direction.
