Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When I filter the tasks for today, I also see those that are in the future but have a start date in the past. If I delete the start date, it is correctly no longer displayed. Is this an error? From my point of view, yes, because this makes the start date useless, because I then get all tasks displayed.

Describe the solution you'd like

If I use a start date and the due date is in the future, the task should not be displayed in the today filter.
