I currently am building a design using a family of task interfaces.  I find this is a nice way to have related tasks working together, some entries' being the same among the tasks, and some entries' being specific to certain tasks.

Yes, there are other ways to manage this, but I find the family of tasks a clean, easy-to-understand concept; plus, it's fun.

It also is important to remember that in many ways we are limited by our tools:  The better abstractions that are available embodied in our tools the better our tools can help us to develop innovative ideas based on those tools.
