Hi
The task statuses does not considers some statues. We have worked on the task lifecycle for workflows (see image below). You are missing: Created, offered, allocated before getting the category of not started because otherwise your problem might be to not have resources availables.
Once In Progress a task can be suspended/resumed, delegated.Failed or Cancelled, skipped. Once a task is Completed, At Risk and Failed.:
We have been working on workflow modeling for developing UIs. The WorkflowLab project has a lot of potential if we imagine an automated process to generate Flex (Information Systems) applications based on Workflows. Imagine that the granular details of a task are mapped onto Flex UIs.
Have you ever consider this potential of using a workflow model as a design of an Information system?
If you need further information, this is a site with publicly available papers of this topic.

The main topic is on how from a workflow model the User Interfaces of the system modeled can be generated but special atention has been paid to task modeling.
If we can be of any help we would be very pleased to collaborate with your project.
