why should it not apply to the parent too ? After all, the tag appears in the parent description. What do you think ?

(I think we should here choose the most intuitive and expected behaviour. But I don't know which one is it)

I agree with Lionel on this. The subtask title is a part of the task description, so if it contains a tag, we could expect this tag to describe the parent task as well...

Closing it as wontfix then. Rationale : the subtask titles are part of the parent task description. That's a design choice. And a tag in the parent task description means a tag for the parent, we don't want some context dependant rules.

I don't know what must be the right behavior. There still problems with
tags in task title.

If I create a task and a subtask with a tag in its title the tag don't
apply neither to the parent task neither to the parent.

If I create a task with a tag in its title with the quick add, and if I
drag this task in a other task in the browser, the tag apply normaly to
the subtask (the task which was created in the quick add) and apply to
the parent too. But the parent get the tag at the first line and in the
subtask title so the tag at the first line is not hightlight.

I know it's not very clear but :
- when a task or subtask has a tag in his title, the tag should apply to
the task
- the parent can apply the tag but the tag shouldn't appear at the fisrt
line with tags whitch aren't in the task body

I understand why you close the bug and I gree with you. I perhaps should
open a new one with what I say in this post but I need your advice
before.
