Begin of the insertion# Pain

Currently it is not possible to sketch a project plan when sub work packages are involved.

1. When adding sub-tasks start and finish date of the parent task get lost. This is an unexpected behavior (bug).
2. Dates of parent work packages can not be changed. The user needs to change the dates of the sub tasks.
3. When changing the dates of the sub-tasks the parent task is updated too. In many cases this is not the intended result.
