Of course, I now realise that by *not* giving a start date at all for the container \
task, I get the result I want.  :blush: 

.. but the behaviour when a start date is given still seems unintuitive to me. The \
key is the check against "depends.isEmpty()" in Task::scheduleContainer(). The \
current logic is this:

"If the earliest contained task has a date later then the defined start date of the \
container task, then change the start date of the container task *only if* it depends \
on another task."

I would have expected the start date of the container task to always be corrected to \
that of the earliest contained task.
