Thanks for mentioning 'org-lint'.  I just ran it on my agenda files, and
it found multiple errors in most of my (very long) files.  So at least
for me (and likely for other Org users as well), the risk of missing
TODO items is real - that's a rather serious problem for a task manager!

My agenda files are populated using 'org-capture'.  Do you have
suggestions how to best integrate org-lint transparently into everyday
org usage?  For example, files could be linted automatically before they
are saved, or before a new item is captured.
