I'm not handy with emacs-lisp, but perhaps someone could whip up a
handy function that iterates org-refile over each TODO heading to move
it into a new, top-level * Tasks headline?
Then you can tag the tasks headline with :noexport:. This would
destroy the "context", but I find keeping tasks in a separate heading
fine for most of *my* medium sized projects. YMMV.
