Description

We know when the cron job is ran, we should tell the user. It's a bit more complex because we run only chunks of the queue at a time, but still, it would be more informative to tell the user when his tasks will be done.

We could display something like:

Your task has been scheduled for processing. Next queue processing is at 14:13:00, current server time is 14:12:45.

A shorter display could also be showed in a column in the site node page.

This is especially useful if the queue is ran every 5 minutes, for example.

I'm marking this as done because of limitations of Views. I committed a fix in http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=125413 that will display all kinds of informtion when an unrun task is being displayed as a node.

As for displaying this information in the main task view, I do not want to add another column to it, so view would need to be able to display that information alongside another column, which I do not know how to do or if it is even possible in views.
