Description
Feature request
This could just be my specific use case but I thought it would be nice to see a parent tasks percentage complete to be automatically set to the combined percentage complete of its child tasks.
Steps to reproduce
- Add a task (root task)
- Add sub tasks to the root task
- Mark one or more sub task as complete
Expected behaviour
Root tasks % complete should be the combined % complete of the sub tasks (for simplicity only sub tasks that are 100% complete should be included in the calculation)
Actual behaviour
% complete needs to be manually set on the root task

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the task completion and parent/child task handling code, then trace where percentage completion is updated. Done means a parent task automatically reflects the combined completion of its children, counting only children at 100%.
