Yes, you're right.

Yes.

Because you filter on one keyword and one project for tasks with multiple 
keywords.

Different, you filter on partial keyword name. You can now use @people%. It 
works.

t_list -k @people% works for that.

But what is cool is to filter on @people% but group by project

t_list @people%

To get this with order_define_grouping, I would have to t_list % @people%.

Filtering with keyword does not imply I want to group by keyword. And vice 
versa.

Both solution provide the same output. The only difference is the way you define 
grouping : 
- with order (first arg is keyword or project)
- with a switch (-k) and a default mode (project grouping).

I prefer the switch option but I can live with the order option. Both are good 
in my opinion.

Could other people on this list give their opinion on those two option ? (or 
maybe provide a third one ?).
