Support alternate checkboxes

[stecydube]

I tried using these checkbox styles but it seems they are not supported, or at least not able to list them.

Can you add support for these, or at least ignore what is inside [ ] other than an X and keep listing them?

Hey @stecydube, could you elaborate a bit? Are you having the issue that is described in #520?

Not related.

Here's what I have in a note to show non-completed tasks:

```tasks
not done
no due date
```

If I have tasks marked as

- [?] Question
- [/] Half done

they do no show unless I remove the "not done" directive.
I guess those tasks are not really done, more in a state of flux.

I think the plugin is doing is marking as DONE all tasks not having a space between the brackets?

These tasks could be considered done:

- [x] Regular
- [X] Checked
- [-] Dropped
- [>] Forward
- [D] Defer

whereas these could not:

- [ ] Unchecked
- [?] Question
- [/] Half Done
- [+] Add
- [R] Research
- [!] Important
- [i] Idea
- [B] Brainstorm
- [P] Pro
- [C] Con
- [Q] Quote
- [N] Note
- [b] Bookmark
- [I] Information

but then it depends on each user's taste.

Maybe something configurable like listing the chars that are considered done?

Or maybe better, but more involved, have something like:

```tasks
not in state question
in state research
no due date
```

where each "word" after "in state" could be configured to be matched with a char or chars like in this crude settings mockup

**Tasks Configuration**

--States--
[Add state (button)] Name of new state: __________ Symbol: _____

States      Symbols
------      ---------
done       X, x, -, >, D
dropped D
forward  >
question ?

It could be cool to have multiple symbols and states per symbol ;)

Ah, ok. Now I understand. I think this is too much effort to do right now, sorry.

Hi, this was released in Tasks 1.23.0 recently.

Oh! I didn't see it. Thanks
