I don't think you need to raise a bug. I think you have a conceptual error in
how all of this fits together. When you did the changes above, you modified
the muse part, but I don't bleieve you consistently modified the planner parts
that sit on top of it.
In basic terms, I think your mixing up two concepts, projects and planning. To
do projects, just use muse mode and ignore planner mode. See my earlier post,
which I hope might clarify some of this for you. For your project oriented
stuff, just work with muse mode and read the muse section of the manual. Don't
use existing planner managed files - leave planner alone completely and sort
out your [project stuff. then once you have that all organised and feel
comfortable with it, re-visit planner mode and I think it will all make a bit
more sense.
