I can see that an "incident" can be seen as a TODO; indeed, anything event
can start as a TODO, then move on in status to one of your other
org-todo-keyword entries. Question: When I start the TODO process, and then
update the status, once or more times, finally, perhaps with DONE, is there
a record of this "Werdegang," this process?
