Could CLOCK: => 2:00 or something similar work? If it did, maybe this could work for Russell as well (if he didn't mind using a clocktable instead of seeing it in the headline). Btw, I like Eddward's idea. Two other candidates for the property list/table are status (TODO, DONE) and tags. It might be more work however refactoring all the code that uses/displays them than the consistency would be worth. --Scott
Well, I wouldn't want too go to far in changing/breaking things. I just know that some things matter to me, but they might not matter to enough others to build it into org. Tags and todo sequences are pretty general in themselves and it make sense for them to be treated special bu org and agenda. Also, all of this hinges on it not being too unreasonable to fit into org-mode. I just figured that attaching an easy to access list of key value pairs that can be filtered on and use in calculations might be generally useful. I was just trying to expand on the schedule keywords. I haven't use clock table yet so I can't really comment on that. I was going to try to use deadlines, estimates and dependencies on todos to build something like a gant chart or milestone table.
