I guess, for me, the "inline" part of the name indicates that this
element is always part of the surrounding element? Of course, this
doesn't mean the parser treats it as such and it looks like it doesn't.

I'm not too bothered with the syntax. I can get used to (almost)
anything. However, as I and others have commented in the inline
annotations thread, there is some worry about the syntax become too
overbearing in the attempt to have it do too much.
Back to inline tasks in lists, for the checkbox use case, I can easily
use special environments instead of inline tasks. In general, however,
I would still like to be able to use inline tasks within lists.
Thanks,
eric
