list_view.rs::handle_toggle writes TaskStatus::Todo whenever a task goes from Done → not-done, regardless of whether the task was previously InProgress, Review, Testing, Blocked, or Backlog before being marked Done. Re-opening a task always loses its prior workflow state.

Fix: persist the pre-Done status (e.g. store it in the task's updated_at snapshot or derive from the previous non-terminal state), or at minimum restore InProgress rather than Todo on uncheck so the task rejoins the active pipeline.
