I agree - I do not like the combined badge count (overdue AND due soon). It means very little to me.

I preferred the older method of only showing the overdue items on the badge. That way I know what I HAVE to get done today. Then after I've completed those items, I can move on to working in a standard GTD way - choose a context and work on available actions or next actions.

In his book, David Allen stresses that you should only place the items on "today's calendar" (his terms - we would call it Overdue in OmniFocus parlance) that are ABSOLUTELY DUE TODAY. After that, you should choose what to work on based on:

1. Context
2. Time available
3. Energy available
4. Priority
