Research direction
Start by reproducing the drag-and-drop flow described in the issue in Tasks 0.17.1 with Firefox 145, moving a task between two lists while dragging through the source list. Trace the task-list update entry point and verify the rendered lists after the drop; done means Task 1 disappears from list 1 and appears in list 2 without a refresh.
