If you have planner-id support (require 'planner-id and possibly add
task IDs with planner-id-add-task-id), then simply editing it and
saving it will work.

If not, you should M-x planner-delete-task, and then start over. Or
you can use M-x planner-jump-to-linked-task, edit the linked task,
close that buffer and edit the original task.

C-k works, although note: if you added new notes, the numbering will
get seriously screwed up. We still have to think of a neat way around
this.

Sure, sure. Up to you. I usually put more organized thoughts in a
different section, though.

Whoops. Fixed in patch-10, I think. Please confirm so that I can merge
it into stable.
