Checklists to supplement Notes feature

rvjc says:
I find myself using the notes feature for checklists associated with a particular task.

It would be awesome if you had an extra tab beside "notes" called "checklists" that would allow you to quickly add one or more checklists and tick off each check item as you progress.

Checklists would need to be sequential with easy up/down order change and they would need to be hierarchical.

But most off all, they would need to be ultra-fast to use.

Here is a somewhat useless example of what a hierarchical/sequential checklist might look like:

Checklist - RTM Feature Suggestion
- Logon to RTM
- Search existing topics
- Submit topic
- Type Up
- Check for Errors
- Proof Read
- Spelling Check
- Grammar Check
- Post Topic
- Check if posted successfully
- Log off RTM

P.S. I don't necessarily practice what I preach :-)

Sorry, in my example, I used spaces to create indents to show hierarchical nature but spaces were removed in final post.

Let's see if this works....

I'd be interested if you came up with a good workaround yourself.
My thought is to have a Daily List with daily repeating tasks, and a similar one for Weekly and Monthly ones, or perhaps a singular list called "Routine" with each tasks set to it appropriate repetition rate.

I'm also in need of something like that. I remember I used an app (don't remember which) where the - were converted to checkboxes.
