Would that work for you?
It would work for some things, and not for others. I tend to put a LOT of questions out and don't necessarily want something that's too top-heavy. Often times, the question is the only action. If I created a project for each of them, I'd sit around managing my GTD all day and not getting much done. I actually do tend to use this for multi-step projects today. It's the small one-offs that I'm trying to capture.

A more granular review system would be great. Like, if I could click on a task and say "review in 3 days", that would solve everything, I think.
