Org mode seems to lack data extraction/insertion. There's agenda view, but
that's just one method. Obviously, you could use things like grep or other
command-line Unix utilities, but being able to organize and extract based
on your stuff being stored graph-aware would be nice, IMHO. Being able to
traverse a graph data structure and do an add or read or whatever would be
great, IHMO. You'd have the benefits of a database with all the good stuff
about org mode retained.
