Description

Would it be possible to add the capability of adding a Comment under a Task in the Dashboard? I know I can do that by opening the Note where the Task lives and write the indented comment under that Task. It would be nice if possible, when processing Tasks from the Dashboard plugin to have the ability to write a Comment under a Task without opening the actual note. This would be specially useful when using an iphone.
Also if possible the Task in the Dashboard could be capable of being Expanded and Collapsed to see the Comments under the Task to continue to process such Task.

The purpose of the Comment is to give some follow up information for an Incomplete Task.
Just to give some context to a Task and help decide how to proceed.

Thanks for considering this.
