You could put the "Add New To Do" link into Site.PageTopMenu or
Site.PageFootMenu to be part of your standard action links.
The difficulty is that you really want to use a form with a form
submit button instead of a standard link. You got the form already.
So you can add the form and submit button (relabel it) to, for
instance, PageTopMenu. You may have to wrap it into a div and
float it right:

>>rfloat<<
...your form and submit button markup..

...list of action links...

If the submit form button sticks out too much, because it is a button
and not  a standard link, you can style it via css to look like the
others.
