I'm wondering if you've played around with this at all? I happen to really like the idea but I wonder about its performance. Unless I'm mistaken, and I very likely may be, won't you have to scan all of your .org files to look for the special tags/properties/todo states/whatever? If not, I'd love to have a pointer to how you can accomplish this without scanning every .org file. That would be cool.
