Reminders for assignee in assigned recurring tasks
For recurring tasks that are assigned it would make things easier if reminders for each occurence could be enabled for the assignee. This type of functionality would reduce the need for sending manual emails requesting someone to complete a task.

Allow sharing of To-Do List in Task
Allow sharing of "To-Do List". I can create a new folder and share it. The task in the new folder show up in the To-Do List folder. I would like the option to share my To-Do List folder, so that the person I am sharing my To-Do List folder can see all my task and due dates.

Add a "notes" icon to tasks
Tasks have a paperclip icon to indicate there is an attachment. It would be good to have a "notes" icon as well for tasks, so you can tell at a glance whether additional notes are sitting in the task instead of having to open up the task to see whether notes exist.

Include reminder settings with recurrence settings, e.g. set for 1 day or 1 hour ahead of each recurrence
It would help a lot to be able to set a default reminder for each recurring task in the recurrence dialog.

Tracking tasks/projects when you send
Some way of tracking tasks/projects when you send. rather than individual emails coming back and having to track. If you send an email or a new format of say a Task Email as they complete they can click done or something and there is a running total of who has completed it and when.

Daily briefing emails from Cortana add option for task to be completed on a day in the future
The daily briefing emails currently have options for Done or Not a task, it would be great if there was also an option to schedule a task. The idea being that I said I would do this task in 2 weeks time so let me book that and remind me about it on that day rather than 2 days after I said I would do it.

Appointments created from tasks can be default tentative or free instead of busy
While in calendar view, when a task is dragged from the task pane to the calendar, the created calendar event is shown as "busy" by default. My idea is to have a setting were dragged tasks create "free" or "tentative" events by default.

The default should be that only the one Task item would be deleted, unless the user manually selects the "delete all" option.

To Do tasks view in a calendar timeline showing start and due dates
Tasks can be seen in calendar showing a timeline from start to due, allow colour categories, priorities, sub tasks, assign to people. Separate this calendar from normal calendar but allow them to be shown together as well. Allow other workers calendar time lines to be accessed if they are working on that task. Basically turn it into a Planner. Charge extra for it BUT ALLOW IT TO BE USED IN ALL 365 including HOME. This is very useful even for non business projects. This will supersede MS Planner as a better system more integrated into Outlook. The additional benefit for…
