I’d also prefer that. I have often used inline tasks for long discussions. One downside would be that it would move the tast contents further away from the main contents it’s discussing. E.g. I have used it for discussions with co-authors and I think they’d maybe find footnotes confusing. For just me, footnotes TODOS would be great. Note, you can also have inline todos: [[TODO::Inline todo text]]. Rasmus -- Vote for proprietary math!
