Hi,

I was going to propose a calendar view, until I searched here and checked 
Uservoice, and realised it's already the most frequently-requested feature 
:-)

However - I wanted to extend this a little further, by proposing that the 
calendar view doesn't just show the deadline dates of the various tasks, 
but actually allows you to tentatively schedule some tasks for a certain 
day and even timeslot - and, going one step further - would allow you to 
view your prioritised ToDo list, and *quickly and easily *drag-and-drop the 
tasks into the free slots on your calendar (alongside your calendared 
appointments).

I keep reasoning that if I execute GTD correctly and use MLO correctly, 
then I should just be able to keep ticking off the 'next in the list', and 
everything will magically get done. However, the reality is that I often 
end up scheduling what I know I need to do, in that particular timeslot 
that I know I can do it in. At present, I often end up 'double-entering' 
(ie. re-writing the existing MLO task as a calendar appointment), to 
co-ordinate this. Using MLO flags up what I need to do on a day-by-day 
basis, but I'll still manually compile my 'Today' list from that, and then 
work on that.

Currently, I use a 'Today' context, and Starred view, for that, so I can 
quickly look at the Starred view on my phone, but every time I look at it, 
I still have to make that mental review of "OK, * task 6... was I going to 
do that before OR after the 3pm conference call?". Much better, if I can 
drop them directly into a calendar view for today, then glance at that.

Anyway, I've posted this as an idea on Uservoice:
