Bug Description

Binary package hint: gtg

gtg's indicator menu is only correct at launch. If I add a new task, it shows in the menu as "My new task" even after I change its name. If I mark tasks as done or even delete them, their menu items remain present in the indicator menu. If I try to open a deleted task, gtg just creates a new task.

Basically, with the exception of "My new task" appearing in the menu after creating a new task, the menu never updates.

I've observed this behavior in both Maverick and Natty. I haven't used gtg in any prior Ubuntu release.

It appears if gtg loads before the indicator applet is ready and consequently falls back on the notification area, the notification icon menu works properly.
