Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When defining tasks, users can add Task description. This description is visible only in the single task view though. This makes them less useful, since the description are mainly helpful when you have large list of tasks.

Single Task view: Image

Task list: Image

Describe the solution you'd like

Add a description in the task list. It can be truncated version next to the title if there's not enough space.
