Well, that would flag all of my entries. I'm not sure I would want all the extra info, since for me it would be repetitive. I have been trying to think of a good suggestion for easily manipulating what goes into an agenda view. I think a format string using property info might go a long way. I can think of a good way to get what you are after. Maybe if there was an implicit property for a heading like HAS_BODY. In any case, I don't think it is that uncommon to have todo heading with body info and I know I would be annoyed by a feature like this if I couldn't turn it off. I think there is a more general/flexible feature that could implement this waiting to be thought up. Edd.
