Thank you very much, but this is a bit tricky, so maybe I should do
this.
If you send me a complex patch, we need to get your papers with the FSF
first, or I cannot install the fixes into Emacs. I already have the
papers
from David and Piotr, so if you plan to contribute code in the future,
maybe
we should go ahead and do this.

There is one difference. When everything is in one line, I'd expect
C-c C-t to reach these states. When they are in different lines,
you will need C-S-right to get to them. Both ways have their
advantages. I guess for a special state like CANCELED, a separate
sequence would be good, but I can imagine cases where one would
like different ways of saying an entry is done.
