Notes in OmniFocus
 
It would be nice to have the possibility to add annotations to contexts (people) and projects. Annotations of tasks are possible now, but simple annotations (that may be sorted on date) aren't. (Or did I miss them).

OmniFocus would not only be a tool plan your tasks, but also to create a log of things you've done, things you've told someone, things you've agreed, etc.

In Prince II, a project log plays an important role and OmniFocus couldn't help projectmanagers with that.

Somewhere on this site are some scripts by Preston Holmes (ptone ?) which manage arbitrary text (tags) via the toolbar buttons. They can then be searched (but not sorted).

doh- I guess I'm duplicating some work then! hahaha. I'll have to check out the scripts! Here's an idea of what I was playing with recently:

[CODE]tell application "OmniFocus"
tell front document
tell document window 1
set theSelectedItems to selected trees of content
end tell
if ((count of theSelectedItems) = 1) then
set selectedItem to value of item 1 of theSelectedItems
set selectedNote to note of selectedItem
if selectedNote contains "&Q2" then
display alert "Project already is a Q2 project."
else
display alert "I will now make this project Q2"
set newNote to "&Q2: Covey Q2 Task" & return & selectedNote
set note of selectedItem to newNote
end if
return
end if
end tell
end tell[/CODE]

Very simple, but it may give you some ideas...
