There probably is, but I never looked into it. I've also tried several
times to reproduce the crash, but wasn't successfully yet. (It's
probably something very simple/obvious what is making it crash, I keep
missing it when reading the code)

I also wrote the following applet a while back. (the one from the screen
shot)
After some searching in old backup's I found the source again, I've
copied the fixed libgtodo in it and here it is:

I wonder what one is preferred? 
This one takes more space, but shows directly how many tasks are due,
and can show a small list.

Please let me know what one I should continue to work on?
