Chiming in here to say that inline tasks make it exceptionally annoying
to specify a sane grammar for org because they require putting a special
case in the headline tokenizer, and/or making it possible to toggle the
behavior of the tokenizer.
As such I strongly support removing them from any official status in
the name of simplifying the syntax (among other things).
