[Vimoutliner] VO-based todo manager?

Geez, all the ladies ask me that.  :)

Short answer: no.

The idea is that you tell it where all your lists are, and it 
puts them all into one big, prioritized list.  Linking between 
lists isn't really an issue when they're all together.

I haven't decided what to call it yet.  It started as "pytodo", 
which isn't so great, and is already taken.  Then it changed to 
"TKDO", since I use TK (ToyKeeper) as my name online, and it's 
short and similar to "todo".  I think it might be better to name 
it to something along the lines of "masterlist", since that's 
really what it is.

I can't really say whether it's any better.  I have different 
tastes and possibly different needs.  I find it more useful, but 
I never really liked todotxt.

I've only been using it a couple days, entering various lists as 
I find them, and I've already got 32 lists and 484 tasks.  I have 
a lot more to add.

BTW, this is only partly CLI-based.  The todo files are all plain 
text, and it can export the master list as plain text, and you 
can use VO normally to edit individual lists...  but the 
interface for editing the master list uses GTK.  It is still 
focused around keyboard input (it even does some common vi 
commands like ":w"), but it doesn't run in a terminal.

I have a placeholder for a text UI, but it does nothing yet.
