I'm not sure what you're seeing, but I get the Growl reminders as the tasks become available. Perhaps you're seeing items as the go past due and have a bunch set for the same due date.

Growl reminders are configured in System Preferences. (The UI is clunky, but that's a Growl issue not an OF one.) Once in the Growl System Pref pane, go to the Applications tab. Then you can select OmniFocus in the list, and click Configure. I have mine set up to show when tasks become available and when clippings have been added to the Inbox.

What version of OF are you using? 1.6.1 sets a limit on the number of reminders it will display at once. And how would a different alarm keep you from having to read through and find the important ones. Presumably you'd still get reminders for the same tasks. Or are you looking for additional meta-data on tasks, like the Alarm settings in iCal? If so, use Help --> Send Feedback to submit your feature request.
