That's exactly the term I meant and I was looking for: `inline tasks'

But unfortunately empty lines do NOT break out of inline tasks.
I thought they would...

Why are they called `inline tasks' then?

If I do

  `M-x org-inlinetask-insert-task'

I get this:

[-- Warning: decoded text below may be mangled, UTF-8 assumed --]

* Headline

  Some text...
*************** TODO inline task
                Some text
*************** END

  Back in original level.

I am `Back in original level' after the `************* END'
portion.

BUT to be there, I have to adjust the depth of the nested headline AND
it still will not work in ASCII export.

Obviously, org-inlinetask.el does not regard the odd/even setting.
And ASCII export does not reagard inline tasks.
