The root item is in fact a TODO item with a sch= eduled date, I have just been using checkboxes as children of the root TODO= item for tracking the individual work items related to the TODO. =A0So for= example:

* TODO Prepare for trip
[ ] pack clothes
[ ] print boarding tickets
[ ] turn on alarm

=
I suppose could swap out the checkboxes for two stars instead, I= was just asking.

I guess, that's intended. =A0If a checkbox item is such a big tas= k that it
deserves its own DEADLINE/SCHEDULED/normal date, then you should have
used a TODO heading in the first place.

Bye,
