If I open the Hierarchy Editor then change the task I'm
on, make a change to the hierarchy, close the Hierarchy
Editor, and respond affirmatively to the prompt to save
changes, my task reverts back to the task I was on
when I entered the Hierarchy Editor. However, if I
choose not to save my changes, the task remains the
same.
For example, in my case, I prefer to log my time making
changes to the configuration of Process Dashboard
separately. Thus, I have an entry in my hierarchy
under 'Non Project' titled appropriately enough, 'Process
Dashboard'. Hence, when I go to make a change to the
hierarchy, I often switch my phase (in order to attribute
the time to the correct phase) after I have opened the
hierarchy. When I'm done making changes to the
hierarchy, I often plan to make other changes in Process
Dashboard, perhaps by editing a time log entry. Thus, I
intend to remain in the same phase 'Process Dashboard'.
However, as soon as I close the Hierarchy Editor and
choose to save my changes, my current task reverts to
the task I was working on prior to selecting 'Process
Dashboard'. If I don't catch this right away, my time is
logged to the wrong task.

As an addendum to this item, I also noticed that pressing
the 'Delete' key while an item is highlighted in the Hierarchy
Editor does not cause the item to be deleted as expected.
Please consider adding this hotkey to future releases. This
would be appropriate for other editors as well.
