A task provider should call this method to inform the task list that it has updated a current task or has new tasks to add to the task list. It is not necessary to call this method when a user deletes a task from the task list. However, this method must be called if the task is deleted any other way (for example, if the user deletes a line containing a shortcut task). The task list will perform a sort, based upon the current sort, after this method is called.
