You would, I think, be much better off not abusing Mnemosyne for this.
(Anytime you are pondering how to hack the *core* functionality to not
work, you should think to yourself, 'how can I do this better?')

There are many better approaches.

For example, you could use a calendar like Google Calendar and
schedule daily events & reminders, or have them emailed to you. When
you're done, you mark as read or trash the emails.
Or you could just make it a habit upon waking up.
Or you could use Cron & @daily tasks in your crontab to pop up an
xmessage for each task, which you dismiss when done.
Or...

The field of reminder/todo software & techniques is thoroughly
populated. I suggest you use them rather than Mnemosyne.
