Would there be any consideration for an inline syntax that looks more

there's a particular chunk of text that I need to do something with.
What about something that looks like:

In 2005 there were approximately [[TODO: Verify this; SCHEDULED:
<tomorrow>; :statistics:][4,500]] Confucius Institutes in operation
worldwide.

How would you distinguish between regular links and such inline TODO's when the "link" portion is hidden?

Would footnotes serve better? (I'm not a consumer of inline todos (yet?) so consider this suggestion with a grain of salt :))

some text[todo:1]
