One of org-mode biggest strengths is its simplicity. I do not want it to turn into a feature ridden dinosaur that is impossible to maintain. I keep my projects simple. I plan not for the sake of planning but to get an overview. So for dependency tracking I usually just reorder my tasks. I don't want to fidget with my plan all day. I want to get things done :-) To that end my plea is to keep org mode simple. That's why John's proposal appeals to me. It is flexible and delegates the complexity to emacs lisp instead of inventing another micro language for dependency tracking.
