I personally disagree.  Let's assume we do have a collision and the
other program also happens to be a CLI – then we're back to square one.
Also, assuming it is a GUI instead of a CLI and the package can be
named "t-gui", there will be the implication that the two are related
when they need not be.

On a related note, the description treads awfully close to advertising
territory.

I'd say "t-todo-list-manager", perhaps shortened to "t-todos". 
Alternatively, we might borrow some bits from the go-build-system
convention and name it com-stevelosh-t.
