 - (#2147) Added context-menu actions for recording task completion today, on the scheduled date, on the due date, or on a chosen date. The actions can be grouped in a submenu from Appearance settings. See [Completing Tasks](https://tasknotes.dev/features/task-management/#completing-tasks).
   - Rescheduling a recurring task can reactivate affected completed or skipped instances after confirmation. See [Recurring Tasks](https://tasknotes.dev/features/recurring-tasks/).

+ * The context-menu affordance is `opacity: 0` until its card is hovered. That hides
+ * it but keeps its 14px box in layout. In the card layouts it costs nothing, because
+ * it sits at the end of a row of its own and `margin-left: auto` parks it against the
+ * edge. Inline, it leaves 14px of dead space plus the row's gap after every task
+ * link, in the middle of running prose - and `margin-left: auto` does nothing there.
+ *
+ * Removed rather than hidden-on-hover: an invisible target inside a sentence cannot
+ * be aimed for, and the link still has its right-click menu.
