Alex, this is an ingenious and nest solution. To describe my approach, I 
need to distinguish three categories: Your ASAP tasks which have no ties to 
any specific dates, your scheduled tasks which are nailed to a specific 
date-time, and something in between: ASAP tasks that do not appear on my 
to-do list until a certain date, and that may have some date by which they 
must be done, but within those constraints they are ASAP.

For specifically scheduled tasks I most often schedule appointments on my 
calendar. If there is some reason why this needs to be set up as a task (eg 
other tasks are dependent on the completion of this task) I will generally 
use MLO Reminder to alert me of the start time.

In line with GTD I use start and due dates as the cannot-be-done-before 
date and the must-be-done-before date. It would really be a serious problem 
for me if I were to lose the use of one of these date fields. If you cannot 
view the start date on your device, I understand that you need to nake 
accomodations. But I would encourage you to try to find a way to regain the 
use of both fields. I don't know much about ios devices but I thought that 
current versions of MLO for IOS included the ability to create custom views 
- can't you just add the start date to the views where you need it?
