Is it possible OP that perhaps the issue is that you are looking to get something from software that software cannot provide? If you are doing creative work or serious problem solving, it’s GOING to be uncomfortable. Yes, tools can help ease that discomfort, but I feel like you are looking for some kind of tool nirvana that you aren’t going to get.

Perhaps you are wildly productive and prolific in your work… but if not, perhaps you are just using CRIMPing as an excuse to escape the hard work of knuckling down and just doing the work with something that’s adequate? Sometimes you cannot adapt the tools to your workflow, and must adapt your workflow to your tools…

Also, it still sounds like org-mode would let you do what you want.
