I can see your point. I guess I trust myself to recall what the supporting file is called, and I trust Quicksilver to put it in front of me when I want it.

Here's another use case for easy access to the project's note field. I'll often attached an email message to a project rather than the included actions. For example, suppose I get an email letting me know that papers that I've agreed to review are available for review. I'll often link that email from a project's note field. Under the project I have my actions: download papers, print papers, mark up papers, write reviews, post reviews. For the first and last action, I need the server URL that's contained in the email message. Quicksilver doesn't help me with this, because my email database is too large to catalog with Quicksilver.
That said, I don't personally need access to the project's note field in context view. Currently I can hit Cmd-opt-R, up arrow, then ctrl-f (my QS trigger to run my Open Linked Item script). I'm kind of crazy at remembering command-key combinations, so this work for me.

I did some further poking around and found your software page <http://www.rose-hulman.edu/~clifton/software.html>, which includes your various OF AppleScripts. So never mind. (And thanks for sharing the scripts.) :-)

It took me a while to figure out, but I realized (with MailTags) ctrl-clicking on the message in mail, "copy message url," then pasting it in OF works. Is there an even better way?

If an incoming mail message causes me to create a new project I use my Mail-OF script. I select the mail message in Mail, trigger the script (using a QuickSilver hotkey), and edit the action description in the QuickEntry window.
When processing my OF inbox, I drag the item from the inbox to the sidebar to create a project, then add a next actions under it.
