In the widget, have the option to show the breadcrumb (parent headings) of a subheading

  • [x] I have searched for existing issues that may be the same as or related to mine.

Sometimes several subheadings might have the same name, only to be differentiated by the parent headings. For example, when I'm reading multiple books, there might be multiple headings named "Chapter 1".

Also, the name "Chapter 1" in itself is not helpful in helping me understand the exact task I'm working on. But I don't want to write "Book X Chapter 1" for every subheading either. A parent heading "Book X" should suffice.

In org-mode, there is a format string %b which shows all parent headings in the agenda view, which solves this issue. (See this question).

Would it be possible to implement this as well for the Orgzly widget, which plays a similar role to the native agenda view?

Something like could would be very useful since we don't have the minibuffer to know the task's parent.

I can second this request: would it be possible to have the outline shown when looking at a calendar list?

I have a rough version of that working fine in Emacs, in case this can help (though I suspect the whole Android implementation is a very different story).
