Hello,



Please consider the following file :

------------------------------8<------------------------------
* TODO working
** TODO 1st part of the work
   CLOCK: [2012-01-05 jeu. 17:18]

** TODO second part of the work [0/3]
   - [ ] Task 1
     - [ ] Subtask 1
     - [ ] Subtask 2
     - [ ] Subtask 3
   - [ ] Task 2
   - [ ] Task 3
------------------------------>8------------------------------

It I switch the second TODO (ie: C-c C-t on the line "1st part of the work"), it clocks out the headline.

So 
------------------------------8<------------------------------
** TODO 1st part of the work
   CLOCK: [2012-01-05 jeu. 17:18]
------------------------------>8------------------------------
becomes 
------------------------------8<------------------------------
** DONE 1st part of the work
   CLOCK: [2012-01-05 jeu. 17:18]--[2012-01-05 jeu. 18:25] =>  1:07
------------------------------>8------------------------------

And that's fine.

Now, if I try to toggle the "Subtask"s with cc, it toggles Task 1 accordingly (to "[-] Task 1" and then later to "[X] Task 1"). And then switching all tasks switche the headline checkbox counter (to [1/3], [2/3] and then [3/3]).

Again it's fine.

But why shoudln't a TODO headline containing only checkbox that are all completed ([3/3] in this case) be switched to done?

Also, why can't I toggle "Task 1" ? Let's assume I was away from my computer when completing some or all of the subtasks. I would really like to check Task 1 and have all the Subtasks checked automatically.

The same thing applies if I switch the 2 headlines "{1st,second} part of the work" to DONE. Shouldn't that switch the "working" headline to DONE too? 

One last thing. I also think I would be nice that, if I switch "second part of the work" to DONE, the counter would be set to [3/3] and all the tasks and subtasks be checked as done.

What do you think?

Cheers.
