    This is cool, but the killer feature I'm looking for is a UI to accomplish the functionality of grit https://github.com/climech/grit. Grit itself isn't particularly functional, but its write-up in the readme hasn't been fully realized by any task tracking software (as far as I'm aware).

    By specifying order through indentation, we've now created a DAG for what needs to be done, in what order, with the most actionable tasks having the largest indentation. This is how I organize my plaintext to-do files, but afaict no todo list software is able to handle this gracefully- with the exception of grit, which is more of an experiment (but the readme is incredibly well written and describes DAG problem to a tee).

    Does anyone know if org-mode handles complex trees? All the examples I've found online were trivial (i.e. one task deep)

    Seems like it uses sqlite. Presumably it's trivial to sync using whatever file sync tool you want (Dropbox, or whatever) as long as you're fine without concurrent editing. For that you'd need application support or a more amenable data structure.
