This was actually suggested to me by a user/family member not too long  
ago. When we talked about it, he envisioned another tab in Kronolith's  
event view something like "Related Tasks" that just listed basic  
details and links to the related task entries. Thought it was  
interesting but didn't get much farther than that as far as  
implementation goes. I might play around with this in the near future.
