Currently the triggers we have for Due Date are:

- Due date is set
- Due date is removed
- Due date is approaching
- Task is overdue

But there are other triggers that we are missing:

- Due date is blank = Very handy to catch tasks that get created without a due date.  
(Due date set/remove won’t work here.)

- Due date is in the future = Very handy to move tasks “out the way” that are not due yet.  
(Approaching rule won’t work here as you would have to check for every single future date!)

It would be great if these could be added
