// Unlike a proper programming language, Javascript only knows references to objects and does not
// allow you to control what is a reference and what isnt. Because of this we can't just add
// all labels to the task they belong to right after we found and added them to the task since
// the task update method also ensures all data the api sees has the right format. That means
// it processes labels. That processing changes the date format and the label color and makes
// the label pretty much unusable for everything else. Normally, this is not a big deal, because
// the labels on a task get thrown away anyway and replaced with the new models from the api
// when we get the updated answer back. However, in this specific case because we're passing a
// label we obtained from vuex that reference is kept and not thrown away. The task itself gets
// a new label object - you won't notice the bad reference until you want to add the same label
// again and notice it doesn't have a color anymore.
// I think this is what happens: (or rather would happen without the hack I've put in)
// 1. Query the store for a label which matches the name
// 2. Find one - remember, we get only a *reference* to the label from the store, not a new label object.
// (Now there's *two* places with a reference to the same label object: in the store and in the
// variable which holds the label from the search in the store)
// 3. .push the label to the task
// 4. Update the task to remove the labels from the name
// 4.1. The task update processes all labels belonging to that task, changing attributes of our
// label in the process. Because this is a reference, it is also "updated" in the store.
// 5. Get an api response back. The service handler now creates a new label object for all labels
// returned from the api. It will throw away all references to the old label in the process.
// 6. Now we have two objects with the same label data: The old one we originally obtained from
// the store and the one that was created when parsing the api response. The old one was
// modified before sending the api request and thus, our store which still holds a reference
// to the old label now contains old data.
// I guess this is the point where normally the GC would come in and collect the old label
// object if the store wouldn't still hold a reference to it.
//
// Now, as a workaround, I'm putting all new labels added to that task in this separate variable to
// add them only after the task was updated to circumvent the task update service processing the
// label before sending it. Feels more hacky than it probably is.
