Ahh, yeah, you're right.  I tend to make it a habit of adding the task for that 
release and marking the bug otherwise for the latest release and leave the task 
for monitoring it for the affected release, which is why I observe things as 
such.

Otherwise, bugs don't get touched if they don't have the task, you're right.  
(My fault on the miscommunication)
