I would think that setting these up initially would require as much
work and attention as simply managing them manually.

What I do is mark tasks that can't be done yet as either NEEDSPREREQ
or WAITING, or put them in my SomedayMaybe.org file if there's no
possibility I'll get to them before my next weekly review. I only
look at NEXTACTION tasks when I'm choosing a task to do, and when I
complete a task, I look at its project to see if any NEEDSPREREQ tasks
can now be done. If so, I change those to NEXTACTION.
Yes, it would be possible to annotate these with a hook of some kind
so that they are changed from NEEDSPREREQ to NEXTACTION
automatically. But my feeling is that doing that would frontload the
planning process too much, take just as much time/attention, and
overall interfere with getting things done.
