Say I have a task that may or may not have follow-up tasks depending on what happens with the initial task.
For example, I'm supposed to call X and if X says Y then I'll do Z, otherwise I'll do nothing.
This might be multiple levels deep. For example:
  1. I want to go to X's house for Thanksgiving.
  2. I need to call X and see if they are amenable.
  3. If they are amenable then I need to talk to Y to see if they are okay with me going.
  4. If they are okay with me going then I need to talk to Z to make sure I can get the time off.
In these sort of ad hoc cases I'm not going to have a series of tasks all setup from start to finish nor do I want to create a series of steps for something which may not happen.
What I do want is that when I complete the initial task I'm prompted whether I want to record a new task that would be the next step in this "project."
If X says no, then I don't need to do anything and say no to the new task. If X says yes, then I create a task to call Y.
This can be accomplished by simply sitting down and entering new tasks after completing them but I think if this was an "app" one could enable it would be useful for me and I imagine others using ClickUp.
