Well, I wouldn't want too go to far in changing/breaking things.  I
just know that some things matter to me, but they might not matter to
enough others to build it into org.  Tags and todo sequences are
pretty general in themselves and it make sense for them to be treated
special bu org and agenda.  Also, all of this hinges on it not being
too unreasonable to fit into org-mode.  I just figured that attaching
an easy to access list of key value pairs that can be filtered on and
use in calculations might be generally useful.  I was just trying to
expand on the schedule keywords.

I haven't use clock table yet so I can't really comment on that.  I
was going to try to use deadlines, estimates and dependencies on todos
to build something like a gant chart or milestone table.
