Event dependent auto tasks

I like that I can create tasks automatically when creating an Event within Podio. But those tasks often have due dates relative to the event itself - i.e. before the event, during the event, and after the event. And many of these tasks apply to every event I'm creating - i.e. sending a pre-event message to all registered customers and then sending a post-event message to the same audience. 

Basically, I would like to have a field added to the "Create auto task" option when building out my Events app. The field would allow me to set it so that whenever I create an Event, a set of tasks are automatically created with due dates set relative to the start and end of the Event - i.e. "one week prior" or "two days after".

  It would also be good to be able to automatically assign tasks to the event creator
