Yup - that's how it used to work; it broke with the column configuration
upgrade, but I just fixed it - tasklist/suggestions v1.12.

I've updated the download zip files on tasklist.netbeans.org:
http://tasklist.netbeans.org/servlets/ProjectDownloadList

They contain the various fixes over the last couple of days, as well
as PMD 1.05. (Previous version was 1.03.)  I just noticed PMD v1.1
is out, but since they changed the included library list I want to
test it a bit before putting it into the download.

Let me know if anybody sees any problems.

Hm, sounds a bit complicated.

However, note that the current "active view" (which tracks the current
file) lets you customize when scanning happens: by default it's on edit,
but you can make it scan on save instead. I'd like to make a third 
option: on request. When this is selected, there would be a "rescan"
menu item (or toolbar button?) which you'd select to force a rescan.
