Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When creating subtasks, oftentimes the same configuration (status, priority, location, link and tags) as the parent task is desired. When many subtasks are needed, setting the same parameters every time can become tedious and inefficient.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a setting that allows to "inherit configuration in subtasks". When this setting is enabled, creating a subtask automatically sets the same values for status, priority, location, link and tags as the parent task.

Research direction
Start by locating the subtask creation flow and where task configuration settings are defined. Trace how a parent task's status, priority, location, link, and tags are represented, then determine the setting's expected scope and verify that enabled inheritance applies all five values when a subtask is created.
