Out of curiosity, might I ask what org-agenda-sorting-strategy setting
produces the default behavior? My agenda shows habits intermingled with
SCHEDULED todos. Here's my org-agenda-sorting-strategy setting.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
((agenda time-up priority-down effort-down)
(todo todo-state-up priority-down)
(tags priority-down))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I very much appreciate this feature!
