That's good stuff. You should consider using QOrganizer and its's Todo related classes [1] in your client code of you are not already. This will allow you to transparently hook into the same backend that Calendar will be using once the EDS plugin is written (currently in progress). A benefit of doing so would be no back end data mgmt code required and participation in U1 sync once that is supported. 

Thanks,
Bill
