I know I'm replying to myself, but I had an idea.

If a link could show the state of a linked TODO, that would make for a
good visualization. I could then follow the link and just adjust my
order to account for dependencies. It sounds like a more "permanent"
agenda view that you could edit to get the right order.

Ie:

* Things to do in reverse order
** TODO One
** TODO Two
** TODO Three

* Implementation Order

 TODO Three
 TODO Two
 TODO One

I don't know what others think, but I did not understand a single word of this message :-) Could you please be a bit more verbose?

Lets make that more generic. How do you organize your dependencies
anyway? The basic hierarchy can't always be setup in order.

One of the things I'd considered is an optional GUID property for each
todo, and then a DEPENDS property with the GUID of any (potentially
multiple?) dependencies.

There'd need to be a way to navigate this list, though goto via GUID
link would work nicely. It may even be appropriate to list the current
TODO as BLOCKED until all dependencies are DONE.

Hi!

Having a TODO which depends on an earlier TODO I would like to trigger the timestamped scheduling of
the following TODO when the former is DONE.

I second this request. I often like to schedule a workflow where task
A must precede B which precedes C, &c., but I'd rather not see that B
and C are scheduled until and (and B, respectively) are DONE.  Seems
like a very useful way to organise.
