What would be a use case for that? I have been thinking I would not want
to see TODO items in the agenda that for the following scenario:

* TODO Organize event
** TODO Choose a date
** TODO Invite people

Here I'd like my agenda to remind me only that I need to Organize the
event. I'd like to be able to check of the subtasks (which I'll do in
the org-mode buffer, not in the agenda), but I do not want them to
"clutter" my agenda.

In this case it is not arbitrary checkable (TODO) items that I want to
exclude from the agenda. I just want to exclude TODO items where an
ancestor is also a TODO item.

Would that cover your use case?

Thanks
Christian
