In my use case, I keep a comprehensive list of projects in Projects.org. Each top level headline is the title of a project. Some projects details (TODOs, notes, etc.) may be included under the headline. A project may grow to the point that I want to manage it within a separate org file. In this case it would be fantastic to have a quick refile command that leaves behind the original headline and a link to the new location. Does this make sense? Maybe I should be using agendas to accomplish what I want. But keeping a canonical list of projects in a single file seems like the right thing to do. -- skip collins
