I doubt that most OSMers would even know which tasking manager to go to without first googling for it. And will the same tasking manager and the same task ID still be there in a few years' time? Are the operators of the tasking manager giving a promise to keep an archive about their completed tasks available for as long as OSM exists so that people can later find out what the mapping activity was supposed to be? > That doesn't mean things couldn't be better.

Maybe this is not something that can be done tomorrow as some processes, software, or even teaching material would have to be adapted, but I'd certainly prefer a changeset description that does not depend on external resources for resolving.
