Connect an item to its corresponding workflow task

For the longest time a lot of my projects have need of this functionality but I can never seem to find an answer.

What we would like to do is to link directly to the workflow task form generated by the list item. This is so that the user can just click on a link and it will go directly to the form in one click vs having to click on item > workflow > task form which takes 3 clicks.

Is this possible to do out of the box?

I can't believe how difficult it is to implement something like this. Any ideas/suggestions would be very much appreciated.
