I have super "projects" that represent my major life roles (mixing in a little Covey here). Within each I have a Misc. Tasks project that is parallel and several other projects that are typically sequential. The Misc. Tasks project never ends, while the other projects begin on a regular basis and occasionally end :-).

I'd personally use sequential projects as the default setting. But I wonder if new-to-GTD users might be surprised by that: "Hey, I entered all the items on my To Do list but only some of them are showing up!"
