Today: Option to Keep List View Static When Planning Tasks
Currently, when planning a to-do for today, Akiflow automatically scrolls the list down to show where the task was placed. While this helps in locating the task, it can interrupt focus by forcing the user to scroll back up each time.

Processing through tasks in "today" view
In the Today view, I often process overdue tasks one by one using keyboard shortcuts.
When I select the first task under Overdue, press P to plan it, and choose Today, the selection moves to the task I just planned. This differs from Inbox processing, where the selection advances to the next item.
As a result, I have to manually reselect the next task at the top of the Overdue section before continuing. This makes it difficult to quickly process overdue tasks in sequence—for example, assigning some to Today, others to Tomorrow, and others to Another Day.
Desired behavior
After planning an overdue task, the selection should remain on—or automatically move to—the next task in the Overdue section (like it does in the INBOX view), rather than moving to the task that was just planned. This would allow overdue tasks to be processed efficiently from top to bottom using keyboard shortcuts.

Not only is the current behavior inconsistent (it only locates the task if it’s planned for today, not if it’s planned for tomorrow to example), but I also think that it’s not the optimal behavior.
When I plan the task I am in « planning » mode, which means that when I click on « plan » I am done with this task for now, so I don’t need to see where it is.

Julien: Thanks for sharing this — really great points. The current behavior could definitely be refined to better support focused planning. We’ll keep this in mind for future improvements!
