the tasking manager is perfect for remote HOT work but in daily osm life
I really doubt it's usefulness, I considered it for GRB work but the
smallest possible squares still where way to large to be workable.

I tried modding the source code of it but I found that square splitting
code to be overly necessary complex and stopped my efforts.

It also uses hash tags as comments which I think are terrible idea.  But
perhaps some of these changed in the latest version... I'm talking in
past here.
