I think a much better and simpler solution would be to have alarms also
for tasks. Then, you won't need to add the due dates to the calendar,
just setup alarms for it.

Although right now I don't recall if, as per RFC2445, tasks are allowed
to have alarms.

add a bug to bugzilla as a feature request, and it eventually will get done.
