Hi,

First of all I want to say that I really appreciate this package.

One issue I've noticed while using it is that sometimes when processing my inbox I make mistakes. For example, I initially refiled a task as a Single Action but later decided that it should instead be in the Calendar. But when this happens there doesn't seem to be any way to go back and re-file this task besides editing manually.

Hi Jeremy,

It's true, there's not really a good way to handle this right now, and there's not really a reason why that shouldn't be possible.

It might be possible to take this item, copy/move it to a new temporary buffer for editing purposes, then allow the user to trigger the menu again (basically, reprocessing the item).

Similar impression here, just started adopting org-gtd, and I expected org-gtd-choose to work on already filed tasks.

My concrete use-case was that I had org-gtd-refile-to-any-target true and a couple tasks were refiled to the wrong file; but one legitimate use-case is when you decide to de-incubate a task; you might want to:

• schedule it, because it was already well-defined but without a timeline, and you just finally decided when you want it done,
• convert it into a project because it was incubated as an abstract non-actionable description and it ends up to be multi-step,
• move it to a specific area of responsibility file (I have several of those, each with their own action/project/calendar… headings)

This is implemented as part of 3.0, this issue will be closed when the PR is merged and 3.0 is ready for beta testing.
