Suggested Syntax for cancelled checkboxes: [-] as non-blocking dependency

[Karl Voit]

Hi,

I was using list checkboxes like that:

- [ ] open task
- [X] closed task
- [-] cancelled task

The latter one is supported via C-u C-u C-c C-c.

However, when I'm using:

(setq org-enforce-todo-checkbox-dependencies t)

... any [-] checkbox will be regarded as non-finished contrary to
the behavior of TODO/DONE/CANCELLED heading states.

As a workaround, I may use:

- +[ ]+ cancelled task

... but this is tedious.

Therefore I'm asking if this might be a viable syntax change:
handling [-] list items similar to CANCELLED headings as
non-blocking when used with org-enforce-todo-checkbox-dependencies.


Tested with Org mode version 9.5.3.
