Hi Chuck,

Achieve Planner (Effexis) or Todolist (AbstractSpoon) is good example
how this filtering in outline can be done. If you filter e.g. by
category, you can see all the tasks labeled by that category PLUS all
their parents (irrespective of their categories), but not necessarily
their siblings and children. The same applies for priorities and any
other filtering criteria. What it brings is easy view to your specific
tasks which you need at the moment (e.g. today tasks, A-priorities,
particular context) without (at the moment) irrelevant tasks but with
all the hierarchy.

It is really very helpful when you have several hundreds of items in
the tree and “zoom” is not the option, because you have e.g. tree
structured by areas or responsibilities and you want to see ALL today
tasks... Also adding new task in the hierarchy is very easy – although
you cannot see all the tasks, in case new task will belong to some of
the visible tasks, there is not problem to add it (although it can
later disappear by refreshing the view).
