Bug description:
I propose a syntax for adding multiple tasks in one go via the Add box:

Task One|Task Two|task3|Task Last

I propose that entering the above text into the Add box and pressing Enter or clicking 'Add' should create 4 new tasks, called:

Task One
Task Two
task3
Task Last

This syntax would allow power users to add multiple tasks more quickly and efficiently - but doesn't require any extra UI, so won't clutter the interface, confuse new users or be onerous to implement.
