I don't use links often... If I could have a link to another TODO
item, but have the visible portion of the link display the status of
the target TODO item.
Ie:
* Things to do in reverse order
** TODO One
** TODO Two
** DONE Three
* Implementation Order
[[file:..*Three][DONE Three]]
[[file:..*Two][TODO Two]]
[[file:..*One][TODO One]]
This way I can follow the link from the implementation order to the
right todo item, the part that is missing is an automated state update
regarding the TODO linked to.
Better? ;]
