There is a bug filed about the common task not rendering correctly in VWP..

But as you know.. it would be great if you could come down to the
specifics :)

The common tasks section acts as a container for common task

It has its own layout mechanism so you cant place the CTG/CT
arbitarily on the CTS.

A common task group acts as a container for common task components.
