New Project client feature: Link Project tasks to Planner

[Trutz Stephani]

If you haven't noticed already: With the newest Project client release you can now link a task to Planner. From my early testing it is for the moment just that a link with an indicator at the task.

It seems this feature will get a small update according to the O365 roadmap:
