Simple keyboard shortcut to add task and frames

Pressing 'c' allows for quick adding of an event to the calendar. Could we have a similarly simple shortcut to add a task?

At the moment there are always a couple more key presses or clicks required to get to add a task than to add an event (e.g. 'c' followed by clicking to change the event to a task; or using the command line and then pressing down/clicking before pressing enter).
