Loading org-inlinetask is the user's job. He has to assume weird things
which will happen when the buffer holds inline tasks without them being
loaded (but I give him an excuse as inline tasks are completely
undocumented).

As far as I can tell, inline tasks are not designed to be nested.

Templates are fine as long as inline tasks are not loaded by default. If
this changes, I agree there are better ways to handle them (one being
what you explain above).

But, a few weeks ago, Bastien suggested to think again inline tasks. So,
that might not happen soon.

What I think is that, for now, we just should keep the existing facility
and implement a working default template for HTML (and a new one for
ODT).
