My small #emacs #orgmode #gtd customization of the day:

#orggtd uses #orgedna to auto-advance the next task for a project to NEXT state when one task is completed.

But, this also causes regular repeated tasks to go to NEXT state when marked complete, and hence showing up in org-agenda even before they are due.

To fix this, I had to add this property to the top-level headings of the tickler file:

:PROPERTIES:
:TRIGGER: self todo!(TODO)
:END:

The *hardest* thing about writing code in a GUI is all the state flying around that you kinda have to assume is gonna be there across the functions.
I hate giving the user control. It's messy. Why do people even want to do things anyway.
