Yes, my patch was just doing part of the job. I wanted to check whether
such a workaround would be hard to implement.

So I guess a complete solution would be to introduce a character like "!",
similar to the "@" we are already using to denote taking a note.   So

#+TODO: TODO(t) WAITING(w@) | DELEGATED DONE CANCELED(c!)

would record a note when switching to WAITING, and only a time when
switching to CANCELED.

Indeed.

Do you want me to work on this?

Well let me do this, I know this code well. To be honest, I'd much rather have you focus on the exporter.... :-)



BTW I think letting "%!" in `org-log-note-headings' would still be
useful.

For example, if someone uses "#+STARTUP: lognotedone", then any switch
to a DONE state will require a note, no matter whether there is a "@"
cookie appended at the end of the DONE state or not.  In this case, I
guess some people would find it useful to put "%!" in the 'done cell of
`org-log-note-headings'.

What do you think?  Would that be too much or a bit redundant?
