Maybe I should have been soberer while trying to imagine how the
suggested features could be implemented in Org. In fact, I just thought
it was challenging to figure out what could be the best implementation
and, while trying to write down those ideas, I surely gave the false
impression that I took for granted that Org should go that direction.
But this is, of course, questionable.
I think this direction is the good one if:
1. people provide convincing examples on how PM-like features would be
useful for their own use of Org;
2. the implementation does not change what people already like in Org;
3. the implementation is incremental, slowly absorbing proposals from
people really using them.
As for 1. I can think of a very simple need I come accross quite often:
I have a few headlines, and the first one is typically being marked
NEXT. Once this task is done, I want the next one to be marked NEXT.
Other example: when I cancel a headline, I want to interactively
cancel subtasks that still populate the agenda buffer.
For 2. and 3., only Carsten can have a clear view on that ones I guess.
