I think I am seeing, perhaps, an unwelcomed sequela of this bug fix. 
Today is 2/8. I have a task that was dated 2/11 (date in the traige 
table) and a tickler set for 2/11, but which I accomplished early. I set 
the triage status to DONE, patted myself on the back, clicked TRIAGE, 
and watched that task get moved to the DONE section. Then I SYNCed.

That task came back, still marked as DONE, but now located in the NEW 
section. The only action that prevented this from happening was changing 
the tickler alarm from 2/11 to 2/8. I can understand why Chandler might 
mark tasks/events as DONE if the end-date/time rolls by, but it seems 
that UNTIL the end-date/time rolls by, Chandler still considers the 
task/event NOT DONE, regardless of the triage status. I suppose, 
logically, Chandler is asking HOW CAN IT BE DONE?, if the completion 
date is still in the future. There seems to be a conflict between logic 
and reality.

P.S. Substituting LATER for DONE in the above description changes 
nothing. I tried that, too.
