When editing tasks without any color from the list view, using the edit button to the side of each item, it automatically sets a color of #198cff if no other color is present.

Sounds like a bug to me. I'll see what I can do to fix.

The quick edit hasn't gotten much attention since I've finished the task detail view which probably explains why there are these kinds of issues.

I think the issue depends in part on whether you hit "Save" at the bottom or not. Maybe it's worth reconsidering even having that button since it seems like many edits on the panel take effect immediately regardless of whether the button is pressed.

I'd like to move most of the settings from the quick edit panel to the task overview panel - I feel like it is getting too crowded. Maybe a good way would be to just trim the quick edit down to the absolute basics like task title, description, maybe due dates + reminders?

Personally I would rather see labels than reminders, reminders to me feel like more of an advanced feature similar to duration, and task relations whereas I label every task I create. Perhaps a good number of these settings could be in the right-click context menu? That would make it easier to make quick edits to tasks in both the list and kanban views.

Should be fixed in 603345b326

I've also reduced the number of available items in the quick edit view and added a link to the task detail view at the same time.

@UnsolvedCypher Adding custom stuff to the right-click context menu is unfortunately not easy to get right across browsers and platforms. I wouldn't try to solve it that way (at least for now).
