Tasks template && time tracking about todoman HOT 1 OPEN

Usually todos are tasks that are planned in future, with alarms, and todoman's filtering tends to "hide" competed tasks by default.

todo flush deletes all completed tasks. That might be a pretty dangerous command if using todoman to record history. Keep frequent backups.

I checked the spec for icalendar, and https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5545#section-3.8.2.5 mentions:

Description: In a "VEVENT" calendar component the property may be
used to specify a duration of the event, instead of an explicit
end DATE-TIME. In a "VTODO" calendar component the property may
be used to specify a duration for the to-do, instead of an
explicit due DATE-TIME. In a "VALARM" calendar component the
property may be used to specify the delay period prior to
repeating an alarm. When the "DURATION" property relates to a
"DTSTART" property that is specified as a DATE value, then the
"DURATION" property MUST be specified as a "dur-day" or "dur-week"
value.

So I guess you can use the duration field for time-tracking purposes. The UI currently doesn't expose it, but adding it should be straightforward (just another input field). I don't think that any field currently parses a duration right now.

todos do have a completion percent, so with the right. But I don't think that we have very convenient filtering via cli args.
