Create task in local calendar with start time and due time 2. At start time, the alarm is triggered correctly. 3. Close the reminder dialog.

The standard options in the Reminder drop-down of the New Task dialog, as well as the default reminder preference for new tasks, will only create a reminder relative to the task's start date. To set a reminder relative to the due date, you need to choose "Custom..." in the Reminder drop-down of the dialog, and add one with the setting "before the task ends". Bug 1048175 exists to make that option available directly in the New Task dialog.
Is there a way to set an end alarm as a default?
