Ah hah! An alias. Now that's a great idea.

I had only been thinking in terms of project management concepts -- a single action that has multiple dependencies before it can begin or before it can complete. But that concept begs further questions: where do you put the single action -- does it live outside all five projects? Where do you manage dependencies -- in another Inspector pane?

But an alias of an existing action would be much, much more elegant (and probably easier to implement!) within the framework of GTD and OmniFocus. All that would be required is the concept of the alias itself -- no additional complexity would be necessary in the Inspector, the project structures, or anywhere.

So how do we go about humbly begging Omni to write this feature??? :) :) :)
