Hi Adam,

thanks for the long email explaining the process and issues.

I've updated to latest version.

Understood.  I guess my challenge is understanding how to specify what I
want in your super agenda specifications.  For instance, how do I get a
list of tasks with deadlines as a separate entry?  How do I get
un-prioritised TODO entries listed?  These all come at the end, in the
"catch-all" section, for me which is not what I want.  The same with the
clock report: it would be good to be able to place this where I want
it.

I have my own customised view where I have the following:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  ("v" "Startup View"
   (
    (todo "INPR" (quote(org-agenda-overriding-header "Currently active tasks: 
")))
    (todo "WAIT" (quote(org-agenda-overriding-header "Tasks waiting on others: 
")))
    (todo "POST" (quote(org-agenda-overriding-header "Tasks for sometime later: 
")))
    (agenda "" ((org-agenda-time-grid nil)
                (org-deadline-warning-days 365)
                (org-agenda-entry-types (quote (:deadline)))
                (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote scheduled))
                (org-agenda-ndays 1)
                (org-agenda-overriding-header "Unscheduled upcoming 
deadlines:")))
    (agenda "" ((org-agenda-ndays 1)
                (org-deadline-warning-days 1)))
    (todo "" (quote(org-agenda-overriding-header "Unscheduled No Deadline TODO: 
")))))
#+end_src 

and I would like to mimick some of this behaviour.  Mind you, I can
simply use my view, of course!

Probably not too many :-)

It's a useful feature but annoying in the default behaviour in that it
is either this or not at all.  (view log will display clocking
information but also task completion etc. which is more info than I
usually want [I know which jobs I finished])

Thanks.  I'll keep playing on and off.
