David,
I'll reply inline to your questions below.

This was a choice to make creation of the task quick and simple.

That is a correct description of the workflow. Did you have a
suggestion of the way you'd like to see that happen?

This again was a choice. Perhaps this could be added as an option,
but if you were to have a lot of notes in the body of a task that
wasn't relevant, you'd have to clear that out of the email before
sending it. We'll look into perhaps an option to allow you to include
the note text in the body of the email.

The task is left incomplete in case you were not able to get a hold of
the person or finish the email at the moment. When you return to
Todo, the task is presented so you can complete it if the operation
was successful.
Thanks for the input, let us know on some of the items above if you
have a suggested workflow you'd like to see.
