Not that I am aware of. Lots of functionality in org depends on inactive
TODOs. For instance, if you don't have a DONE state, then scheduled
items will remain on your agenda forever, even if they aren't marked as
a TODO.

Why not just switch back and forth between TODO and nothing by S-Right
and S-Left?

Best,
Matt
