"Add task" screen should using texting keyboard

[rhussmann]

Summary

The "add task" screen should use the standard texting keyboard to facilitate faster text entry.

Discussion

I understand that the current keyboard provides somewhat faster access to characters designating context and project (@ and +, respectively). However, the majority of my time is spent entering task text, not the attribute characters. I find myself consistently frustrated when adding TODOs, fighting the muscle memory I've developed with the standard keyboard. As this is a workflow I frequently perform (adding new tasks), it should fit the standard keyboard model.

In addition, the button in the upper right-hand corner should read "Add," not "Done," as done has special meaning within the context of todo.txt Touch.

I'll happily claim this one if we agree this bug is valid.

Just on a quick test if you add textView.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeDefault; after textView.inputAccessoryView = accessoryView; in TaskEditViewController.m that will change the keyboard to the desired one.

Fair enough, just wanted to make sure this was okay, as a group, before making a move on it.

There was feedback on there being no ":" that would be used for due dates or times with the current keyboard layout.
