I could say in the same manner "please queue a task without any parameters" to get it running right away, or "code your own button" In any case, we won't add such a button because you're missing the difference between a "function" and a "task". If you need to run a function "now", either queue it as a task without parameters or execute it from the shell.
A task is much more than a function: it can be configured to run only in certain timeframes (start_time, stop_time), to be repeating, to recover automatically from exceptions (repeat_failed), to stop after n failures, to be disabled at all, to run n times per hour (rate-limiting), have different args and vars, assigned to a particular group of workers, etc etc etc. Summary: "run now" makes sense only under some very strict condition, that don't apply to every usecase scenario.
