It is quite finicky to add a Section for subtasks in a task.

If you use the shortcut `Tab-N` in the “wrong” place (e.g. this seems to occur if your cursor is at the start of a subtask name in the Details View) then the new Section is created in the main task list, instead of **inside** the task you are working on.

Other times, the shortcut _will_ create a Section among the subtasks - this seems to occur when the cursor is at the end of a task name.

[Note: this may be a bug - please follow up with that if so]

In any case, it is very difficult to add Sections **inside** a Task, but these are very useful for separating Subtasks.

My suggestion (other than fixing `Tab-N`’s consistency) would be to add a button for `Add section` next to the `Add subtask` button (see screenshot below), so at least you could click on that and be assured you’ll get a new Section in the right place (inside the Task and not inside the Project List).
