1. How and where it should be displayed?
It can be displayed alongside the task name e.g.
* TODO My repeated task (DONE=3)...
Here DONE=3 meaning the task has been completed 3 times.
Another way to display is: DONE=3/4, where it means the task is completed 3
times out of 4.
But it is much more complicated because the user can change the repeat
duration.
Another thing is to show the longest streak and last streak count, but
these are also complicated I believe based on the information that is
logged.
2. When it is going to be useful.
It is very motivating to see how many times you have complicated a specific
task. It is much like a streak. People would wanna see their statistics to
put more effort. I strongly believe "The best way to get better at
something is to measure it".
