Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Create tasks with different priorities
  2. Have a look at the dashboard widget
Expected behaviour

There should be some indicator showing priority level beyond the automatic sorting, clearly distinct from task list color.

Actual behaviour

There is no indicator and I find it easy to confuse the task list color with priority since I mainly use blue and red as task list colors.

Server configuration

Nextcloud version: 21.0.4

Tasks version: 0.14.2

Research direction

Start by locating the dashboard widget and the existing priority and task-list color rendering. Compare how the widget currently presents tasks with the expected distinct priority indicator, then verify that tasks with different priorities remain distinguishable without relying on task-list colors.
