I use MLO to keep track of my professional work. I agree it can be overkill, but it's perfect for managing tasks that depend on other tasks.

Some additional features I find useful are:

- the ability to add multiple tasks (line separated)

- you can automatically generate a list of tasks ordered by urgency and priority (can be customized)

- you can easily nest tasks into folders

- you can easily edit many tasks at once (priority, dates etc.)

- folders flagged as "projects" display a progress bar overlay

- you don't need to go through any menus to add/view task-related notes; notes appear in the sidebar depending on what's selected

- great for multi-tasking because it dynamically combines all your task lists into one
