Comment 1 for bug 255507

It would also be nice to have an option to specify a parent task, for things such as:

  t add wri -p "novel" -t "reread chapter 2"

The '-p' or '--parent' option would probably just pick the first task which contained the query string, and add the new task as a child.

It might also be useful to have an option to specify an immediate sibling instead of a parent, but maybe not. It would probably be easier most of the time to just edit the file or use the GUI.

A '--diff' option could help the user verify that the requested change was made correctly.
