I'm not sure to understand how you use the keyword MILESTONE. Can you
be a bit more specific, maybe give an example of your Org file and the
expected agenda view?
I can think of three ways of implementing something like milestones:
TODO keywords, tags and properties. Did you already try to use tags
and/or properties?
For me, a milestone would be an ordinary task with an additionnal bit of
information, and I would put this piece of information in a property.
For example:
,----
| * TODO Release 1.2
| DEADLINE: <2007-12-15 sam>
| :PROPERTIES:
| :Milestone: Unicorn
| :END:
|
| * TODO Fix bug #322

I would also be interested in this. Did you make any progress on this
since you last posted your question?
