Not really a bug, but marking it as a high priority enhancement, since it's confusing even to you and I to have this in two places. Seems like it blocks turning this in to an API?

New API for selecting a task; related refactoring and minor fm

I actually broke it into a separate class, PageFilter. This is then used as a dependency for the API (see bug 55773 and Icaf84e75d95bb06d108137221aa13e99003355e1).
