NOTE: This will affect all your Task Lists in a way you probably don't
want, if you have more than one. Every Task List (with an exception of
"Personal") will be displayed *only*, if they are defined as such within
this GConf tree. The data itself isn't lost or harmed, but it won't be
visible and displayed as a Task List.
I'm seeing way too much posts like these lately. Be careful when doing
things like this or advising it.
(Yes, as the data itself is not harmed in any way, it can be re-created.
Unfortunately this needs some manual steps and con not be done within
the GUI. Well, just like the above advise...)
