I think it is nice when there is a well thought out spec for something. But in this particular case, I think it is not compatible enough with other tools.
In particular, Markdown has a todos (using the same `[ ]`) and just uses indentation for grouping. I find this more intuitive and it renders in markdown renderers.
For priorities, I have adopted the notation of OneNote which puts exclamation and Unicode star symbol next to the todo brackets.
I also use some other conventions:
[-] for obsolete rather than [~].
[>] for postponed until later
Implemented in my Todo manager TUI: https://github.com/coezbek/rodo https://github.com/coezbek/rodo

- randlet 5y ago> In particular, Markdown has a todos (using the same `[ ]`) and just uses indentation for grouping. Came here to mention the same thing. I use a plain text todo format that is quite similar (thought not nearly so thought out/complete) to the one OP is proposing, but I use indentation for grouping as it's a lot easier for me to visually identify related groups of tasks.
