Hi Robin,

Do you keep track of someday-maybe items across multiple areas /  
projects?
I've imagined modeling this by giving users the ability to have finer  
grades of triage status:

Now, as in Right Now / Today
Now, as in Soon / This Week

Later - At some point, I have to get to this.
Later - Someday Maybe

Done - Recent - In the Past Week / Month
Done  - Archive

This is a tricky issue to work out a clean solution for. Can you  
provide some specific examples of items you'd like to exclude from  
the Dashboard? In particular, what other collections do those items  
appear in?

Thanks!
