I don’t know, maybe. You can make actionable inline content various ways:

  1. tasks - [ ] my tasks

    • retrieve later using Tasks community plugin
    • they are directly linked to the source file
    • can be queried using native search and task:, task-todo: or task-done: search operator — Search - Obsidian Help

  2. comments %% my comment %% or <!-- my comment -->

    • currently there is no native feature to query comments
    • however you can use this native search query: content:"<!--"
    • you can use Enhanced Annotations community plugin to display file specific comments
    • as with tasks comments are directly linked to the source file, however you can use the plugin to export individual comments to separate files
    • the plugin automatically inserts a backlink to exported comments
    • comments can be hidden by using read mode

  3. QuickAdd community plugin

    • can be used to create files with note linking {{LINKCURRENT}}
    • it offers various template variables like {{selected}}
    • it can also create notes from input prompts

  4. Templater community plugin

    • Templater offers similar variables like QuickAdd
    • much older plugin and not as easy to use as QuickAdd

  5. Modal Forms community plugin

    • it adds more customization options what comes to input prompts in Templater/QuickAdd
