Uncheck items after 'using' them

knightfire says:
The problem I have is that I will select a bunch of items, then select 'postpone'. They get postponed and pushed down the list (it is sorted by due date). I then check a number of other items and click delete, and it deletes all checked items, which includes the postponed ones.

I usually notice and click undo, but it would be better if doing something with checked items will uncheck them.
It is also worth noting that the website behaves differently to the android app. If I check some items in the android app and click postpone, they get unchecked and postponed (the behaviour I would like to see in the web site)

As described on our Smart Add blog post, Smart Add changes the way you can select tasks:

To select a single task: Click on the task's row.
To select multiple tasks: Click on the checkboxes in the tasks' rows.

So, in your example, after you've postponed selected tasks, when you're ready to select a different task, you can click on its row to select it and unselect the previously selected tasks. (You could also click the "Select None" link at the top of your list or press 'n' to unselect those tasks.)

Hope this helps!
