Would it be possible to add %todo as an alternative to todo:, to reduce proliferation of multiple formats?
Do you mean like this:

Well yes :-) But if %directive is being adopted as a standard, I'd suggest that encouraging the migration of TODO: to that form would be desirable.

How do yo want to encourage that?

My suggestion would be to change the IDE to recognise %todo as well as todo:, in three releases time (1.8?) have the IDE insert new items favouring %todo, and at 2.0- which is presumably not on anybody's radar at the moment- rewrite todo: as %todo.
