Inactive timestamps in planning types?

Inactive timestamps in planning types?

[Thorsten Jolitz]

Hi List, 

can inactive timestamps appear in 

 - title-stamps (the timestamps attached to headlines)
 - planning types like deadline, scheduled and closed

?

It does not seem to make much sense to me, but maybe I'm overlooking
something.

I'm not sure what does not make sense, if it's the question or the
possible answers :)

probably the question, but Org-mode allows to write down (and parse and
export) combinations of timestamps and planning info that are correct
syntax but make no sense either. 

In other contexts than plain-text buffers one would probably restrict
possible user-input to what makes sense, but its not always obvious what
makes sense and what not with so many possibilities ...

Can you point at such a combinaison and at some real bug/problem that
can emerge from it?

Thanks in advance,
