I think inlinetasks may also have a use for those sections that are not
"nested". In typography they are usually called "anonymous sections" and
they are separated by some symbol (asterisks, dinkus[1], etc.). They
behave like a true section, except that they are not headed by titles or
level numbers. I think Org's support for these types of sections would
be useful and novel, since there is (as far as I know) nothing similar
in other lightweight markup languages. Anonymous sections can be useful
not only in print or PDF texts but also on web pages.
