Some time ago I mentioned a very peculiar type of TODOs I’d like to implement. These are things I’d like to do from time to time, but not necessarily on a regular basis...

This is fascinating, thank you for sharing.

Irregular TODO items are what led me to org-mode and Emacs. I wanted to be able to say "do this task at least as often as every 5 days, but not more often than every 2 days."

There are also habits where you can do the habit at least every X-Y days: https://orgmode.org/manual/Tracking-your-habits.html But that's a bit different use-case.
