Great news!

don't forget that there are two kind of past elements: the done, and the
undone! Fading to grey an past undone element would be a mistake because it
could be forgotten by the project manager. Being late on a project is
something that happens on plenty of projects, so don't forget that point.
Maybe the vertical line is better for these reasons.

I think that is a really good solution to have this new feature implemented
fast!

I have made so far two Qt applications for desktop and N900 so I know a bit

Sorry, I don't develop on plan so maybe go on IRC freenode #calligra, I
pretty sure someone will answer you there ;-)
