My understanding is that tea-time is something that tells you X, Y minutes from now. If it was integrated into org, that suggests to me that I can tell org that I have to do something in one hour from now, and org will somehow notify me. It also suggests the possibility that the modeline will count down just as it currently counts up in the clock. But aside from a series of steps, such as create a task, set a time, run org-agenda-to-appt, or some type of steps involving effort estimates that I have not investigated yet, I don't know how to tell org to tell me X in Y minutes. Is there a way to tell org, "say X in Y minutes"? If not, what are the relative merits of appt-add and tea-time and the series of steps?
