That is true, but text like "E" merges into the adjacent words.  Frankly
the puctuation symbols were a good solution, but not as slick as the
bullet/checkmark suggestion.

They did not merge with the text, but they were not searchable.  May I
suggest using the text "[easy]" and "[done]" instead?  That way, it is
searchable, and they don't merge with the text.

I just made this change.  What I now notice is that both markers are
visually not very different.  I don't know if this is something worth
fussing about.  (Maybe the addition of icons as Brendan was suggesting
would be sufficient visual clue.)

Perhaps [Easy] and [Done] would look a little more different?  Not sure.

Looks OK.  The only downside is that reading down the list now has the
easy/done items shifted to the left, but that seems unavoidable.

Thanks. Maybe setting [easy] in orange and [done] in green would solve that 
too.

Based on the feedback so far, I have tried for a "best of both worlds"
approach.  The markers now include icons, which gives us visual
distinctiveness, and I've abbreviated the labels to "[D]" and "[E]",
which makes it very easy to search.

I agreed with Bruce that it was a shame the markers bumped the actual
item text over to the right.  It looked uneven.  So I applied a bit of
CSS-fu and got the markers to appear to the left of the items.  They
now appear in a similar fashion to the bullets in an unordered list.

Cheers,
BJ

Hi,

While we're on this topic, I think we need put a link at [1] heading
directly to (Official) Todo [2]. What we have ATM is "Unofficial Todo
Detail" that is rather inconsistent. We should rename it to "Todo
Detail". Comments?
