Yes I just tried and same issue.

- I created a new task
- opened it from the kanban view
- clicked “save” without typing anything in the description

And then I’m stuck and can’t close the task editing window without refreshing the page.

The first console error appears when I click save, the other when I try to close.

There is no problem if I try to type anything before clicking save, only if I click the button without using the text field before.

(There is no reason to click save without editing description, but since I was using it for the first time I thought the button was to save all modifications, not just description… so it’s mainly an issue for confused new users)
