The new Compact View is an improvement but (in my opinion) still takes up too much screen space for tasks with Notes and Tags which end up having three lines for each task.
Could you move the tags up to the first line of the task, in front of the task details, leaving the notes beneath on the second line.
Also, the gap between each line seems to be unnecessarily wide meaning wasted space between the lines.
I love the concept of GQueues, the way it integrates with Google Mail is just perfect but feel irritated by the wasted space between the lines when viewing task queues.
Its great to have the option for Comfortable or Compact View and due to this (in my opinion) you should really go for it and remove all additional wasted space on the Compact View.
This would satisfy those of us who want to see as many tasks as possible on the screen and are not really bothered about the "look" of the page.
For those who are more in tune with the aesthetics of the display and are not desperate to see as many tasks as possible on the screen there is the Comfortable view.
For those who want both, well they have to make a choice.
