Can new types of status be added for the task?

[mxs88]

Let me explain, for the moment we have 3 types for the task (to be completed, done and canceled), is it possible to customize the plugin in some way by adding others? Or should we act as a code?
I would be very comfortable with at least a couple of other states, such as a 'blocked task' or a 'task to be confirmed' with their own colors and custom symbols/icons.
An example of what I requested can be seen in the attached screen.

Well, technically such task is as pending as an open one so I’d use a tag rather than a bullet if anything.

But if you you are willing to send a pull request with a nonintrusive implementation—I could merge it.

Hi vovkkk,
first of all, thank you very much for your reply!
I apologize but I did not understand the first statement.
I made this request because I think it is more useful to have it as a type of status of a task rather than a tag, as with the tag it does not change the color in the tasks list and mainly the date and time in which this task is not shown has been placed as blocked or to be confirmed.
to understand, in several tasks with very long texts, the tag risks getting lost, as happens in my case, while placed as an additional state, it would help the recognition. It would be very convenient, even to have only a couple of more states in addition to the usual 3 states.

Unfortunately, I don't think I'm the right person to be able to implement this update, but maybe someone more experienced than me could do it

In the first statement I was talking about my way to deal with such tasks, I meant that the purpose of your request is although understandable yet excessive for my use cases.

I think you are the very right person to be able to implement this update, because firstly you are interested in this functionality, and secondly it is more easier than you probably think: read docs about syntax http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/syntax.html then look how we toggle bullets in PlainTasks.py file, it might look overwhelming but really it is just the first impression.
