points taken both!

I see that you are both referring to it as "project view" rather than "planning view", so i'll take that on board.

I am slowly getting my head around the methods here

I do see the benefits of the context mode (and i do already use the context mode)

but as far as making the application accessible to all levels of ability/understanding (from a GTD guru to a 16 year old student), then I really hope that the planning mode gets some attention because for me, it's workings are the key to moving onto higher levels of thinking and understanding. I used the projects as a test bed for lots of idea and experimenting.

On a final note I do appreciate that in the big scheme of things this is a small cog. I am aware of that!
