That's odd. The only thing triggering this is planner-id's updates,
and it's supposed to check if the tasks are already equal. You'll get
one set of modified files the first time you save, but a second C-x s
should have gotten all the rest.

You can disable this temporarily with

(defun planner-id-update-tasks-on-page (&optional force)
  ;; Do nothing
  )

If you could trim this down to two troublesome tasks and send them to
me, that would greatly help me get to the bottom of this bug.

Sorry for the inconvenience. <sheepish grin> I haven't run into that
bug in a long time despite the planner-ids I have around.
