I found a bit of code to exclude DONE keywords from refile targets
here: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html#sec-2-3
Since I try to keep all headings with keywords as end nodes, I wanted
to exclude all TODO (and DONE) keywords. However, the member function
doesn't work on a sequence data type, so I couldn't use
org-todo-keywords the same way the org-hacks code used
org-done-keywords. Furthermore, org-todo-keywords contains extraneous
characters in parenthesis that define "selection characters". I ended
up creating a new variable, org-todo-keywords-list, and converting the
data from org-todo-keywords into a similar format as
org-done-keywords.
Perhaps a org-todo-keywords-list variable would be a useful addition
to org-mode. Here's the code I'm using:
(setq org-todo-keywords '((sequence "TODO(t)" "DELEGATE(l)"
"STARTED(s@)" "WAITING(w@)" "|" "DONE(d)" "CANCELLED(c)"
"DELEGATED(e@)" "POSTPONED(p@)")))
;; define a new variable
(defvar org-todo-keywords-list nil
"A list version of org-todo-keywords, without the selection characters
in parenthesis.")
;; create org-todo-keywords-list from org-todo-keywords-list, using a
;; similar format to org-done-keywords
(dolist (keyword (first org-todo-keywords))
(when (and (stringp keyword)
(not (equal keyword "|")))
(add-to-list 'org-todo-keywords-list
(replace-regexp-in-string "(.*)" "" keyword))))
(defun jbd-verify-refile-target ()
"Exclude todo keywords with a done state from refile targets"
(not (member (nth 2 (org-heading-components)) org-todo-keywords-list)))
(setq org-refile-target-verify-function 'jbd-verify-refile-target)

You should be able to use org-todo-keywords-1 which contains a list of
todo keywords for the current org file.
