There are several slightly more complex things in org-agenda (you can
set extra switches in agenda menu to affect the subsequent command - see
agenda restriction), but please by all means go ahead if you have
interest in this area.

This is not an immediate goal. Rather a justification that we generally
aim for a more modular code structure.

Feel free at ask anything if you encounter difficulties. It is not
always trivial to convert something that works for you personally into
something suitable for all the people using Org.
