First, thank you for the excellent inline tasks feature! I use it a lot,
and came across this bug as a result.
If you have a multi-line inline task, with an END line, then refiling it
leaves the END line behind. Since it isn't needed at the destination, it
should just be deleted.
*************** TODO example of refile bug
C-c C-w takes these lines,
but leaves the END line.
*************** END
Regards,
Peter.

I've discovered a couple of related issues:
1) Archiving an inline task leaves the END line behind.
2) Footnotes. If org-footnote-section is set to nil, the
org-footnote-action treats inline tasks as sections and thus sorts
footnotes under inline tasks.

Hmm, refiling inline tasks? Isn't this a contradiction in itself?

Same here, isn't this a contradiction????

This on the other hand is a bug which I have just fixed.

P.S. Of course we can change the behavior also in the first two points,
but I would like to discuss first if this makes sense.....

Well, I certainly understand what you mean, but the fact that I tried
to do it shows that it's sometimes needed! The use case is a small
TODO, noted in passing, being absorbed into a larger piece of work when
it becomes clear that there is a general problem to be solved.
These inline tasks mostly appear in the middle of my work log file,
which is the digital equivalent of a lab book or diary. Everything
I do at work gets written down as it happens, and that sometimes
includes TODO items.

Fair enough! It's also worth considering the point that the function
does actually work; it just leaves a spare END line.
Regards,
Peter.

All three issues are fixed now.
However, in order to make refiling and archiving work properly,
the inline tasks *must* have the END line.
org-inlinetask.el now installs a new key `C-c C-x t' to insert an
inline task at point, including the corresponding END line.
