Feature request: Relationship between distinct recipes, sub-recipes, double recipes #40

I have the following cases, which I think merit tracking:

  1. A recipe that includes a "sub-recipe" describing the process of making one of the ingredients of the "main recipe"
  2. A recipe that ends by referring to the next step, which is—in fact—the next recipe (so there is a relationship between the two: the second recipe relies on the first)
  3. A recipe that has a header indicating two types of product (in this case, glue) and then a recipe for each kind within the same "body text" of the recipe

We've decided to consider the primary unit described as an "entry". The most common type of entry is likely "recipe". It should be discussed whether the distinctions of types of recipes is valuable or not. To do that, there needs to be some goal or purpose to measure the value against. It may well be sufficient for many purposes to categorize entries as "recipes", in others the distinction of types of recipes is critical. User stories are helpful for being able to make these judgments.

Practically speaking, it is probably best to just use the term "recipe" for this iteration and further refine if we find it is necessary
