Description

### Problem

- In order to create a new task, the user has to open the app and then go to a specific project and then create a new task. This is not very useful when the user wants to create a new task without being distracted from the current focus.
- Also, if the user has a project that is used frequently, eg: inbox, opening the app and then navigating through a long list of projects to find the inbox and then creating the task introduces some friction.

### Proposal

- Provide a quick add widget like planner does to add a task.
- Let users select a few number of projects that can be displayed in the context menu while right clicking in the dock and the applications menu search, and provide options to quickly add a task to that project
