When working on a document, I tend to sprinkle TODO headlines throughout the
doc.  These are really very loosely structured; they just represent things
that I need to do somewhat near the area that I'm looking at.

I mark these lines with a :noexport: tag in order to prevent them from being
exported.  As such, they're not part of the document structure per-se, and I
often mark them as top level headlines.  Since EXPORT_EXCLUDE_TAGS applies
to a tree and not to a title, this prevents the export of any subordinate
items.

Here's an example:

* An amazing headline
** stuff
** more stuff
* TODO clean up the stuff above :noexport:
** this is stuff that I would like exported

In the example above, I'd like to have the everything but the TODO headline
exported, including the "this is stuff I would like exported" line.

I guess that I could always have my TODO lines be at a very deep level.  Is
there any other solution I should consider?

Thanks,
Sam
