Thanks for the feedback... I see you're referring to the NOTE sidebar here <https://cloud.google.com/tasks/docs/creating-queues#before_you_begin>, correct? Is your request to have a similar note placed on the Cloud Console page to disable their App Engine apps <https://console.cloud.google.com/appengine/settings> warning users it will also disable their Task Queues, regardless of where the task handlers are (GAE or not)?
If so, go to that page in the docs, in the upper right corner, click the "Send Feedback" button and use the tool to submit a screenshot of that NOTE and let us know this warning should also appear on that Cloud Console page. This will give weight to any bug filed (when customers experience issues like this). I think the reason you have to have an *enabled* App Engine "app" (in the console even if you don't actually have any code running on App Engine) is that Cloud Tasks originated from App Engine, and they haven't fully migrated it away from GAE yet.
