Useful and nice. It sounds like SQL for Org mode from the animated presentations. It solves the complexities at certain level. The more complexities are created by user the more there will be tendencies to handle Org in relational manner similar to org-ql and SQL. As the more complexities are created then even org-ql becomes complex to work with just as SQL becomes more and more complex with more relational tables and pieces of information. For org-ql I hope that your system can be used as underlying layer or low level language for functionality that may help user to think their stuff without thinking on underlying functionality. You have offered examples and those are in my opinion too abstract for Org users. They are fine for programmers or more skilled users. High level functions would be something like a wizard with code generation, that creates hyperlink for the user without user having to think about org-ql It could be something like `ql-meta' or `ql-summary' that is created on the fly and that collects information for agenda like view, and creates Org file with hyperlink that invokes the agenda like view. Entries from the past week could be something on the fly. Additional hyperlink in the ql-summary could have the user to customize sorting without thinking of the underlying code. Find entries matching a certain CUSTOM_ID could be automatically generated heading: *** Entries by CUSTOM_ID ONE TWO THREE MORE HYPERLINKED AND SORTED CUSTOM_IDS when user clicks on any of those this would invoke the org-ql and show those entries. By click and by thinking, not necessarily by constructing the org-ql. Similar could be for deadlines. Music could be sorted by author in the summary Org file that has many hyperlinks which in turn use the org-ql to activate music, or annotate it. Your file `examples.org' has some hyperlinks under the heading Contents and none of hyperlinks work. Why is it so? In the end I could not test examples as it asks for org-ql-search that in turn asks for super-agenda that I do not have. I wonder how could I install the package that requires org-super-agenda and that it starts working. Maybe you missed one (require 'org-super-agenda) as when I wish to install it, it does not.
