Another thing that I've found helpful is to make my Inbox perspective open in a new window. I set my main OF window to a Default Planning Mode perspective (Active, Projects, Library Selected, Grouped by Folder, Unsorted, Remaining Actions). Then I open my Inbox perspective in another window (same settings but with Inbox selected and the sidebar, toolbar, and view bar all hidden) as shown below:


I think of this as my Processing configuration. I can readily move items from my Inbox into the appropriate projects.

I actually avoid OF while collecting. I just use QuickEntry to dump items into OF. I've found that I tend to fall out of the collecting habit and start organizing if I don't clear separate collecting from processing. YMMV
