Description

I hardly use due dates for tasks, but prefer to order them in priority order.

Research direction

Start by locating the Dashboard widget and the code that selects tasks for display; no file or test is named in the issue. Check how tasks without due dates are currently filtered, then verify that the widget shows them in a useful priority order without regressing dated tasks.
