1453065 - There's an issue with Tasks. When I select 'Category' and 'Add a new category' I can't use that newly named category for any other tasks. The only way to do so is to create the same category name again each time.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1453064

(Calendar :: Tasks, defect)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.13; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0
Build ID: 20180323154952

Steps to reproduce:

- Pick a task
- Select 'Tasks'
- Select 'Category'
- Type in name of category in 'Add a new category' e.g., Coding To-Do
- The new category can be seen from the selection.
- Now, close down Thunderbird, and choose a different task this time to add to 'Coding To-Do'. You'll now see that the category can't be chosen.


Actual results:

You can't select 'Coding To-Do' for any other tasks, besides the one you selected at the start.


Expected results:

You should be able to save the task 'Coding To-Do' so that you can group a number of tasks together in the same category. Instead, of creating the same new category again, and again.
