I'm open to suggestions on this. It sounds like an OK idea to me, however the
prefix argument to planner-create-task is already taken, and if it requires
more than a couple of keys to do this, it's not worth it, since you can easily
copy and yank the next from the note title yourself.

So, how should the interface be? If you want to implement something yourself
and then see if it works for the other people here, feel free. 

I think the way to go, since we don't have a global way for doing default
planner task name text, might instead be to change the text of the annotation,
so that if you want you could have the full title of the note as the annotation
instead of the PlanPage#1 that we get now when you create a task while on a
note. This is similar to what we do in planner-gnus, where you get the full
e-mail subject as the annotation. 

Often I create e-mail tasks with just "reply" as the task text, because I know
that the rest of the information is automatically picked up by the annotation.
