To-Do List Version 2.0 is here. I was able to include most of your suggestions in this version..
The new features include:
Due Dates: Now you will be able to set due dates for your tasks. Just click on edit and you will see an option to use Due date. Check the “Use due date” checkbox and set the appropriate due date. Click on “Save Due Date” and the due date should be saved for the task. The number of days due is displayed adjacent to each task as “2 d” or “365 d” which represents 2 days and 365 days respectively.
Auto change Priority to “High” based on Due date: You have the option to let the gadget change the priority (to High) automatically based on due date. For instance - You could specify that the priority of a task becomes high when the task is due in certain number of days (1-5 days). To achieve this, just click on edit and check the “Use due date” checkbox, then set the appropriate due date and then select the number of days when the priority of the task should become high.
Various Sorting Options: Now you have the option to Sort the tasks by priority or by due date. As the name indicates, “Sort by priority” sorts the tasks based on priority of the tasks. This comes in handy when combined with the auto-change priority option. “sort by due date” sorts the tasks based on due date.
Various Printing Options: Now you have the option to Print the tasks based on due date. You have the option to print either All tasks or Tasks that were due yesterday, Today or Tomorrow.

You can download the gadget by clicking the Vista sidebar button below:
Version 2.2.0 (Recommended Version)
(Minimized View)
(Maximized View)
NOTE: If you are using old version (If you can’t find version number at the bottom of the gadget, then you are using OLD version), Please print all tasks at your convenience. PLEASE DO NOT edit settings before you print all your tasks.
Minimizing the gadget to fit Windows Vista sidebar: You can click “Minimize” link at the bottom to fit the gadget in to Vista sidebar. If you want to look at the more advanced version, click “Maximize”.
More storage: The gadget now allows you to add as many tasks as possible without loosing data.
Bug fixes included as part of Version 2.2.0:
Data gets lost after editing settings - This was because the maximum size of data that can be stored was 2Kb. So the gadget discarded all the data without warning when it hit the limit. This bug should be fixed now.
Some known quirks include:
The gadget will seem to disappear sometimes when you click on “edit” or add too many tasks. Don’t Panic ..Just scroll through the vista sidebar tabs (On the top of the sidebar near the “+”, there should be “>” and “<”), and you should see the gadget in the next tab. The reason is that - Vista seems to push the gadget to the next tab when it doesn’t have enough space to display the entire gadget.
I am trying to improve this gadget whenever I get some free time.

Based on feedback, I’m making some enhancements to “To-Do List with Google maps”. The new version will be available tentatively on Saturday night (24th November 2007) around 10:00 PM (GMT -7).

The upgrade should be transparent to existing users. There is nothing special that you need to do. Please do take a print of all your tasks by Friday at the latest.. just to be on the safer side. Please don’t delete the gadget as that may delete all your tasks permanently.
