Similar tasks: the duplicate hint
Two agents file the same thing minutes apart, and a person finds out later (board #2732: "SVG icon rasterized" was filed just after "improve svg support"). So filing a task lists the open tasks in its project whose titles share its words. It never blocks the create: the task is filed, and the hint says what to do if one of them is the same thing.

virta similar "SVG icon rasterized" # look before filing; writes nothing
Plain word overlap, on titles, case and plurals ignored. Two shared words
make a task similar; so does one, when that word is rare among the
project's open titles (svg is). A word a tenth of the titles carry
(board) doesn't count. The rarest shared words rank first. virta list "~svg ~icon" is the wider search: it reads bodies
too.
