Strictly speaking, there is no "parallel" working on subitems or tasks
in an ordered Tree; thats why I only use it for situations where there
is really no alternative order than the way it is laid out in front of
me.

Did you try org-depend.el in contrib/ ?
It offers a much more flexibel way of handling dependencies.
OTOH, this flexibility naturally needs more manual intervention to set
things up than `C-c C-x o'.
