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.

Nonsense or not.... I like the idea a lot!

It= would be of great help to me.

personally I would only need one pare= nt (the inner most) headline.
In your example that would the following:

Make a plan TODO Print a trillion dollars
=
but

[Take over= the world/Make a plan] TODO Print a trillion dollars
is even better if the level can be customized and the order rev= ersed.

The agenda has a prefix by default... maybe that could be/get= used.

Greetings from Austria,
