I'm using the timeline widget on a form in my model-driven app. It's a nice, compact display of the activities and notes attached to my entity. But in terms of UX, it's really lacking. Here's snip of a task in my timeline:

I've highlighted in yellow the link to open the activity. This link is only available when hovering over the task and it's stuck in the midst of other actions that have record-changing consequences.
I'd like to be able to open the task by clicking on the title line of the card. What is the best way to implement this?
