Wow, didn't think this observation would generate so much buzz :) Great to
know other org-mode users feel the need for it too.

Another aspect is that when you archive and item (when it's DONE) it's nice
to know it's context. If you have a NEXT ACTION that belongs to a project
and this specific NA is already DONE, if you archive it you'll loose
context. (you might want to data mine the archive file later, never knows
:)).

Anyway, as you could note, these additions are GTD-specific, since I'm a
GTD-proponent. And org-mode was so far the best system to implement GTD
after plain paper.

Maybe we could create a GTD extension to org-mode? I'd love to help in the
development, but I have no idea on how the code is structured and or how
easy is to add / modify current features (coupling, plugin model, etc). Is
there any document that explains it?

Thanks,

Marcelo.
