So, currently, the way it's done is that missed calls show up on the dashboard much like SMSes, emails and IMs do. The dashboard indicates this, first, by showing a message bubble with the relevant information for a few seconds that then moves into the dashboard button. When you have alerts waiting the dashboard button will glow.

Like I said, though, adding a widget to show any of this information is pretty trivial. Somebody just needs to do it.
