Hi Davor,
This isn't an edge-case at all, I'm glad you brought it up.
So Done is a value for the attribute Triage status.
Next month is a value for the attribute Date.
Something can be both Done and Next month (ie. Taxes are due April
15, but I've already Done them and filed them.)
I think the use case you're describing is: I want a collection of
things that are either
Triage status: NOW or LATER; and in the NEXT MONTH.
In that case, once you've marked something as DONE, it should
disappear from the collection because it no longer meets the Rule.

However, that rule only adds things into the "Project: Launch".
It doesn't prevent users from making exclusions or inclusions.
Essentially, de-Labeling or Removing an item from "Project:
Launch" even though it is technically "From: Karen" OR Labeling
or Adding an item to "Project: Launch" even though it is neither
"From nor To: Karen."
This looks pretty reasonable in general, so I just thought I'd give
it a test on an edge case.
What if you have a simple rule like "Next month" that collects
items with the due date in the next 30 days? Would it look like
"the right thing" if an item that a user specifically included
remained in that collection indefinitely? Even after it was marked
"done"?
Should there be some visual feedback in the summary view indicating
items that don't match the collection rule but are included because
the user explicitly marked them so?
