That's pretty interesting, but not quite what I meant: I was thinking
that TODOs would be first sorted by outline level, and then only TODOs
that belonged to a subtree with "higher" TODOs would be indented. With
"indented", a second-level TODO can come after a first-level TODO and
appear to be subordinate to it, though they belong to completely
different subtrees.

But stating the problem this way makes me realize it's more complicated
than I thought…
