Option to group todos by page title #39

Thanks for this plugin, it is very handy.

I will keep a file per project with notes and todos. I would like to be able to see my todos organized by project. e.g.

Instead of this:

[ ] write proposal
[ ] Do something
[ ] Do another thing
[ ] Something else you must do
[ ] And do it again
[ ] write proposal
[ ] Track down a thing
[ ] Followup on another thing
[ ] Invent something new

It would be helpful to see this like to see this:

Project Alpha

[ ] write proposal
[ ] Do something
[ ] Do another thing
[ ] Something else you must do
[ ] And do it again

Project Beta

[ ] write proposal
[ ] Track down a thing
[ ] Followup on another thing
[ ] Invent something new

Hey @clscott, thanks for your report. This is definitely something I would be interested in adding.

There are some questions around the feature I'm still thinking about. Maybe you have some thoughts on them too?

Would you always want to have your tasks grouped by file, or would you want to be able to toggle this on and off in the UI (instead of one-time in settings)?
For users that use the daily notes plugin: should we group all tasks in a daily notes file in 1 group ("Daily notes") or should they be split out across separate notes?

As a user of Daily Notes, I would appreciate very much a creation of a group "Daily Notes" with the multiple todos grouped by title (wich in this case is a date)

Count me in on this one! I have a note created by each project I'm working on and I add to-dos on each note. When the to-dos are all together in the plugin panel I can't tell which to-do is from which project until I go to the note using the arrow. Having a title of the note between to-dos would be a huge time saver.
