Show current status in tooltip #295

Description

@marbetschar

Problem

Because of #294 we are now able to Middle-click to open the Calendar (thanks @danrabbit!). To make this shortcut discoverable, we added a tooltip.

What's still missing however, is displaying the current state. I feel this is missing, because all the other tooltips in Wingpanel do show some sort of current state; for example the Volume tooltip:

144705677-c39f68e5-73c1-4706-949f-3ad94a0beb75

Proposal

We could add some text, which summarizes the plans for the current day. Something like:

1 event and 3 tasks planned for today
Middle-click to open Calendar

Other states:

  • If there are events but no tasks:
    • 2 events planned for today
  • if there are tasks but no events:
    • 1 task planned for today
  • if there are no events and no tasks:
    • Nothing planned for today

Prior Art (Optional)
