I can see where M-S-ENTER prompting for a status note change would be
annoying. Personally, I don't use that feature, so I didn't think of
that -- I'm more interested in the timestamps. Basically, I like being
able to record /when/ something was first entered as a todo item --
gives me a good way to see which items are the oldest.
One thought is to record the state change, but default the status note
to "TODO created", rather than prompting for it.
Then again, maybe a variable is the best answer here, because sooner or
later, somebody is going to want to change that. Normally, I'd hate to
add more and more variables just to complicate things, but org-mode
seems to have no shortage of them. (That's a good thing!) :)
Thanks,
Keith

I'm using org-mode 6.25e right now, and I've turned on the
functionality to
track todo state changes. If I create a list item (M-ENTER) and then
change
it to a TODO (C-c C-t), it correctly puts the state change in the
:LOGBOOK: drawer as I've configured it.
However, if I use M-S-ENTER to combine the above two steps into one
(create
a "TODO" item), it does NOT create an entry in the LOGBOOK for State
"TODO" from "" at all. Is that a bug?
IMO, this is not really a state change.
In interesting point, and something up for discussion.
I personally am neter interesting in recording a time stamp when first
switching an item to TODO. Furthermore, for other state changes I
prefer to record a note.
However, M-S-RET is really meant for fast adding of one or more TODO
entries, and being prompted for a state change note would be really
annoying here.
Up for discussion, I am willing to install a variable here....
