I'm sure I'll get flamed, but I agree with you - a task without dates should just be a placeholder that gets assigned specifics in a weekly (or daily) review.
One reason why I stopped using MLO much (apart from the long delayed iPhone app and now iPad app) is that is seemed to me to have become too complex as shown by all the "why don't my tasks show up" emails to this list. You need to be able to trust a system for it to work which is why I ended up going with a simplere system for now. I also agree with your other comments . I'm never sure why people jump in to answer questions as if they were the developer and you've just insulted their baby.
