Saving the description is confusing in the Now view #1440

Expected Behavior

Users should easily understand how to add and save a task's description while on the now view.

We should add a standard element to the screen that a user can click to save the description while still saying on the tasks's focus screen.

When hovering over the button, there should be a tooltip that explains what'll happen once the button is clicked. It should also show the shortcut [meta] + enter to indicate that the user can do this from the keyboard.

Current Behavior

The input from the description is correctly focused while the user is typing. However, when they're done, there is no visual indication that they can find to know how to 'save'. There is a checkbox icon, but that actually marks the task as complete rather than saving it.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Go to the day view
  2. Create a tasks
  3. Go to the now view
  4. Click into the description or use the shortcut
  5. Start typing
