Default Customized task forms should retain characteristics when assigned

When you customize a task for by hiding certain pages and creating pages,
publish it, open a copy of your new task, attempt to assign it to someone
else after copying it to your task list, the task does not retain the form
you gave it. Simply put, customized tasks DO NOT WORK in Outlook. This is a
bug in need of a fix.

Well, when you assign it to another person, doesn't the assign action create
another task item to mail to that person. If it does, then it will use the
standard task form. You need to examine that action and modify it so that it
opens you custom task form. I do not use task forms, myself, so this is just
a guess.
