I will try to explain why was completely unexpected such behaviour.

The fact that subtasks are pre-requisites to the parent tasks, or even
more, that parent tasks can't be started until all its subtasks get
finished don't imply at all from my point of view that parent tasks
should not appear in the Work View. In lot of cases (where the subtasks
definitions are done contextually, I mean, subtasks descriptions are a
kind of specifications or continuations of the parent task description)
the lack of the parent task in the Work View can be bad for the
understanding what a subtask is.

Beside of that, I don't agree with "the parent task is not "workable"
until subtask are done" idea. In case where a parent task is just
subtasks,  each time we finish a subtask we are in fact
working/advancing in the parent task, so why don't show the parent task
on the Work View? In future, when % of termination is added (I expect
such addition soon) would be nice see that the % of termination of
parent tasks in the Work View too.

I don't will change the bug state again ;)

Bug description:
When I add subtasks to a task and go to the Work View, the parent task disappear, I mean, just the subtasks are showed. When I leave then the Work View, the parent task appear with the subtask as must be.
