I believe the 'empty line breaks out' idea is for exporting inline tasks
only - they don't behave that way in regular org files IIRC.

I've tried using inline tasks but they don't work well for my meeting
notes for a few reasons:

  - They break the list if I'm making point form notes (which is what I
    normally do for meeting notes)
  - they look and act like real tasks... so they block marking the
    meeting DONE
  - they show up in the global task list even if the meeting is DONE and
    they were more for information only than real tasks.

Regards,
Bernt
