I think what I would find most useful would be an optional count by
each branch of the outline of how many subtasks there are at the next
level.

Autofocus (4)
  Page (25)
  Page (25)
  Page (25)
  Page (8)

Or with completed tasks hidden, more likely

Autofocus (4)
  Page (3)
  Page (8)
  Page (18)
  Page (8)

I'm still undecided whether computers are better than pen and notebook
for this system. However the above would be helpful with using MLO for
it (the way I do it, anyway!)
