1. Doesn't parse out the date in the item description, unlike what the description of the extension says. 2. You have to do two extra steps - zoom in first so that the workflowy item is the main item, and then evoke the extension before the calendar event can have the same name as the workflowy item. And then you have to zoom back out to just go do your regular workflowy step. It would have been awesome if you could create the calendar event by just keeping your cursor at the bullet level for the task without having to zoom in. Because of above two, this extension cannot be used productively by me. Sorry :-(
