there's not tooltips on tasklist columns and the columns themselves 
have completely meaningless names like 'C' or '!'

as a user i feel lost here

NOTES:

	task list is owne by desktop

	The columns have mnemonic names (C for completed, ! for priority) since 
otherwise the column headings
	would be disproportionately large, and take space away from more 
important columns.
	Tool tips would be a good idea, but SWT does not have support for tool 
tips in table column headings.
	See 1GBZLD1: SWT:ALL - Need support for tool tips in table columns
