Apparently I'm missing something.  How are you using hierarchy in an
agenda view?  Agenda views are flat, e.g.:

  tasks:      TODO [#A] Some task
  tasks:      TODO [#A] Some task
  tasks:      TODO [#A] Some task
  tasks:      TODO Some task
  tasks:      TODO Some task
  tasks:      TODO Some task

If I remember correctly, the reason they're flat is that it generally
doesn't make sense to show the hierarchy because it won't make any
sense.  For example, the following:

* TODO Project A
** Some project A notes
* Project B
** TODO Some task for B

would have this hierarchy in an agenda view if we hypothetically displayed it:

  tasks:      * TODO Project A
  tasks:      ** TODO Some task for B

which I think is confusing at best (but I can believe is useful for
some work flows if you're careful).
