gTasks Pro Calendar
Google is making It harder for third parties to integrate into Google calendar, yet they always allow users to let third party apps subscribe to their Google calendars. Therefore, I suggest approaching this problem in reverse.
THE GTASKS PRO WITH CALENDAR
I think that Yaniv at gTasks should make his own integrated calendar. IT would be available as a different view option in the left menu pane, or as a separate tab.
With this approach gTasks Pro would display Google Tasks, Google Reminders, Google events and Google calendar data all inside a single calendar.
And unlike Google Calendar, the Google Tasks with specific times can be places inside the calendar (not in the "All Day' section at the top).
I think this would also position gTasks Pro as a leading player in the GTD app wars. This model wouldn't require IFTTT, Zapier and all the unnecessary headaches of just seeing our Google Calendar data in one place -- FINALLY.
The calendar would be integrated into the existing app, and therefore available on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
As a secondary plan of attach I would suggest building a Web version so that PC users who have iPhones can get in on the action to increase the customer base to support the cost of rolling out these new features.

Please--it is so annoying that I cannot see my calendar due dates on my calendar. I have a google calendar that I use in iCal and I have google calendar on iOS calendar app. Neither show Tasks due dates. However, Google calendar on the web does show calendar due dates!
