Another partial workaround is to use OF internal linking. You can drag one action onto the task in a different project (across two open windows) and create a link. You can create the master task that has all the detail, and then link it to placeholder tasks in the other projects.

This does NOT offer auto completion of one when all are (though through some complex applescript, this may be possible). But at least it would help you keep track of the task and only need to put the detail in one place.

Of course if that detail isn't likely to change, copy and paste is a whole lot easier.

OF currently doesn't adopt any many-to-one relational approaches. No multiple contexts, not multiple instances of a single task.

I agree an alias type task would be cool, complete with little redirect arrow and same drag modifiers to create it as used in the Finder.
