I had the idea of using CATEGORY as a keyword.

Benefit:

using #+CATEGORY (or the CATEGORY property)
has the disadvantage that if I change the headline the category does not
update:
example:

Org-file:
* PROJECT *my_renamed_project1*
  :PROPERTIES:
  :CATEGORY: *myproject1*
  :END:
** TODO clean garage    :home:
Agenda-output:
*myproject1* TODO *clean garage*    :home:

In this example the Agenda should show "*my_renamed_project1"* instead of "*
myproject1*"

The next step would then be to enable the user to define this
CATEGORY-keyword or bind it's function to an existing keyword. (e.g.
PROJECT)

If there is a simpler way of getting the partent headline as
agenda-prefix... > that would be even cooler and much less work I can
imagine.
