One more. ;]
So I'm setting up a sample project using column view to experiment
with durations, assignment, etc.
I've noticed that I'm duplicating my property drawer manually, and was
curious if there is a way to setup a default property drawer for new
items or a new todo hook I can tap into.
Thanks.

If you use column view (C-c C-x C-c) and enter durations it creates
property drawers in tasks that don't already have them.
There's also a function org-insert-property-drawer.
I've got the following setup:
(setq org-global-properties '(("Effort_ALL" . "0 0:10 0:30 1:00 2:00 3:00 4:00 5:00 6:00 7:00 8:00")))
(setq org-columns-default-format "%40ITEM(Task) %17Effort(Estimated Effort){:} %CLOCKSUM")
and I just C-c C-x C-c on a parent task and use S-right to assign the
effort durations to each task.
HTH,
Bernt

I completely overlooked the fact that in column mode editing an item
with no properties creates those properties.
Thats 90% of the way there.
Is there a way to specify a default?

I don't know of a way to specify a default currently but I may have
missed something - org-mode has so many useful features :)

Hmmm. In principle there is, because you can make a property
use inheritance and define a default for the inheritance, just like
Bernt has shown
in his example for the EFFORT_ALL property.
However, since the EFFORT property is a summary property, I think
inheritance would be a problem.
So the answer is no there is no good way to define a default value. I
will put some thought into this, to see if this could be done in a
useful way.
Maybe you can use a template to insert new entries with the property
already defined?

Hi Russel,
I am coming down on the side that there should be no default, because
it would require to create the property drawer automatically, without
any user action. It sem to me that the way Bernt was describing, with
and EFFORT_ALL global property and using S-right to switch values is a
good way of getting to a default fast.
