Starred tasks not indicated

[ei14]

In Google Tasks, a task can be starred or unstarred.

If I'm not mistaken, gtasks is unaware of this. There is no way to view which tasks are starred, create a starred task, or star an existing task.

This would be a nice enhancement.

Looked into this - unfortunately the Google Tasks API doesn't expose a starred/important field.

The Task object only has: Title, Notes, Status, Due, Completed, Deleted, Hidden, Links, WebViewLink, Parent, Position, etc. No star field.

Google added starring in their apps but never added it to the public API, so there's no way to read or set it programmatically.

Keeping this open in case Google updates the API.
