Right, it doesn't do everything Org Agenda does. Since Org Agenda does
also serve as a kind of "search view," org-ql can largely serve as a
replacement for that aspect of it, providing several advantages. But it
doesn't implement the daily/weekly-style agenda view, so it doesn't
replace that part of it.
I'll probably refactor and rename it soon, removing "agenda" from the
name to reduce confusion. In the future I may work on an a
daily/weekly-style view as well, which might again be called
org-ql-agenda.

In some cases, perhaps, but while I do want to add more features from
Org Agenda, my goal isn't necessarily to reproduce it in every aspect.

That's an interesting feature. If I do support it in the future, it
will probably come after implementing a more complex Agenda-like view
that will be quite different from Org Agenda.

Yes, with respect to text properties, I do intend to copy what Org
Agenda does, for the most part.
Thanks for your feedback.
