I hadn't noticed that the due and flagged built in perspectives use the last context. Thanks for pointing that out.

I have a semi-related question about the built in perspectives and another on other toolbar items.

1) To wynz's question, yes, you can add your own perspective to the tool bar. If you've created a new perspective, if you go to customize toolbar it's there for the dragging. But my question is, is there any way to tweak the built in ones? Or do I just need to start from scratch and make my own? The new built in Projects and Contexts perspectives use Remaining as the status, and I always click it over to available. At least in the case of Contexts. Projects, I flip back and forth. But Contexts is 'work mode', so seeing stuff I 'can't' do isn't very helpful. I know I can create my own and use their icons and put them up there, I just want to know for educational purposes if I'm missing an 'edit' opportunity.

2) I've got Curt's Populate Template Placeholder's script on my toolbar. That's a long name! Can I edit that name? Will it lose functionality?

Also, a picky little comment. I love that the new built in perspectives are there. I love that Omni is trying to make it as close to the iphone views as possible. I love that the icons are 'telling'. But it bugs me (a little) that the icons don't match what's going on when it doesn't seem like it would have been to hard to make them match.

The Projects icon has two 'planning' pictures. The Contexts icon has two 'context' pictures. The Review icon has the cup of coffee on the 'planning' icon...and it takes you to planning mode. So far, so good. But the Due and Flagged perspectives have thir pictures in front of a 'planning' picture, but they take you to context mode.

I know, picky. Has anyone modified these?
