In my workflow I have a number of repetitive tasks for which I have created blueprints. I find that frequently the same group of tasks recurs in a given type of project. In those cases it would be convenient to have a Super-Blueprint comprised of several blueprinted tasks, such that when the Super-Blueprint is selected, all of the appropriate sub-blueprints are added to the project. in a single selection.

Oranged Support We might be able to add a group of blueprints for this purpose. Right now the closest you can get is that you can pre-add blueprints to project templates, so when you're creating a new project and you select a template, all of those blueprints will automatically be added.

Rob Sherrard - Imageer Well, duh! I guess I already knew that, because when I actually ran an existing (little-used) project template I found that it was inserting blueprinted tasks in just the way I was requesting the Super-Blueprint to do.
In re-educating myself, I watched the tutorials on creating and linking templates, but the focus is on creating and linking Gantt items and Todo items with no mention of Task items. That it was possible to work with blueprints was evident because I had templates which inserted task items. I just didn't know how I got them to be there.
The missing link was (finally) found in Preferences, Project Templates where the possibility of linking Blueprints (as well as Employees and Notes) to a template exists in the Project Template Editor scene. My Confusion and the need for a Super-Blueprint were both eliminated.
An update to the Knowledge Base highlighting the possibility to make links besides Gantt items and Todo items would be appropriate.
