I am affraid I am not that familiar with org-mode to note what you are
suggesting there :-). I am sorry, it is on my.

What I needed as I just wrote in answer to Bastien, is something
independent of TOTO states, so I can use it side by side with TODO
labels. I am not sure how your proposal fits into that, but that is
mostly because I am really not very good with org-mode.
