I thought I had posted this but I don't see it, apologies if you get

Like most things in MLO there are many different ways to do this and the
"best" one depends on how you personally manage your tasks. My solution
would be to make your "main tasks" into projects. You could then have an
overview based on the "projects" view which would hide everything but the
main tasks. Added bonus" the projects would each show a progress bar which
would let you know at a glance, without opening the list of subtasks, how
far along the work had gotten on each of the main tasks.
