Instead of blue checkmarks on every day, show how many tasks are due in the icon

Hi, wouldn't it be great to have a task count in the small blue circle instead of a tick on the daily gadget? It just makes more sense, I think.

Thanks for your feedback! We'd love to be able to have different icons depending on whether a day has tasks -- unfortunately due to some technical limitations with Google Calendar, this hasn't been possible to date. It's something that we're continuing to investigate, and hope that we'll be able to support in the future.

It is my imperfect understanding that the interface RTM uses to insert the tick mark is an all or nothing affair - the same image appears everywhere or nowhere. So as much as I like this idea, I don't think it's workable.

Andrewski or Bob can correct me if I'm wrong.

Though I like your idea of number of tasks more than color coding (better for color blind folks too).
