This is needed asap....it is crazy that tasks don't follow the opportunities. I need tasks for each opportunity to manage the sales process. When one contact has multiple opportunities...the tasks (and notes) for the opportunities get jumbled up. we need tasks and notes for opportunities so that steps to completion and directions for the tasks can be followed, managed and used to hold employees responsible for the opportunity accountable.

Yes, we need to be able to assign tasks to either a contact, an opportunity or neither.

And when custom objects comes out to them too, ideally.

I have a client complaining about this just today - they have multiple opportunities on the same client, and the same tasks are showing up on them all.

This needs a fix soon as poss, to make tasks useful.
