Issue/Description:
A couple of small UX enhancements could improve usability in Tasks:

When pressing the search button, the search box should be automatically focused so users can start typing immediately.
The current list view title could display an item count in the format:
List Name (count)

These are minor changes but would noticeably improve workflow and clarity.

Expected Behavior:

Pressing the search button should autofocus the search input
The list title should display the total number of items in the current list
- helpful especially for a long list which requires scrolling
- display search result count as well

Also, after creating a new list, focus the Add new task text field. This won’t interrupt users who want to create another list or perform some other opertaion, but it allows users to start adding tasks immediately by simply typing, which would be a better UX.

If possible try to add focus to the Add new task textfield when selecting lists in navbar too.
