Description

When I get backed up, many daily recurring tasks appear, so I delete most of them:

```
task 285,288,292,289,304,320,321 delete
```
The prompt asks me if I want to delete all pending recurrences, but I don't - just those I selected.

I don't think this question should be asked multiple times - just once.

```
