It would be great on the "Master" of repeating tasks to set the status to something different than the "Default project status" selected in the "Manage account settings." That would allow recurring tasks, for example, to be created with an Active status even though the default status has been set to something like "Backlog" for tasks that are entered but not yet Active. Recurring tasks, that way, could be created in an Active status, since they are expected as part of an established routine, rather than being created with a default status such as Backlog, which is useful as a default status for new entered tasks.
