"File a technical task" button is confusing

The grayed out submit button in combination with the highlighted "technical task" button is confusing -- it suggests that the primary action of this form is filing a task, which actually discards the form's contents.

Alternatives: Provide an initial choice in the dialog, or demote one of the actions.
