New Empty Lists Created in RTM don't appear in Astrid on Sync

[jasontango]

Using Astrid 2.8.6:

In RememberTheMilk (RTM), Go to settings and create a new List "FooList".
Go to Tasks view and confirm that the new list appears in the UI (without adding tasks to it).

Sync Astrid. Go to Tags view.
FooList does not appear in the list of tags.

Yep, don't think this is a hard issue to address... but what's the use case? So you can invoke auto-complete without having first typed the name of the list? The way lists map to tags is not ideal, at any rate...

Hi,
The use case is a product of me having tags/lists for certain projects. So when I'm adding a bunch of tasks for a project, I prefer to be working in that list, then the tag is auto-populated when I create a new task. It works fine if I've already got one task in the list, this would just make it easier for me to start with a new empty one too.
Thanks!
