One piece of handling used to apply only to tasks you started yourself. It now applies to any task with a known source, and passes on where the task came from and its output file.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis may mean that stopping a task you did not start is now reported, as stopping your own already was.\n\n- Area: Background Tasks\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
