*5) View selector in the menu. This is certainly a cheap way to add

understand the fine distinctions between a Dashboard and a Table,
especially because there is a collection called Dashboard. Table and
Sectioned Table or Triage Table? might make more sense? However,
there's a 'Use sections' menu item in the View menu which confuses
things. Perhaps we should get rid of that if we have these View menu
options at the top.
I'm happy with calling it a "Sectioned Table" or "Triage Table" and
getting rid of the Use sections menu Item. I need to double check with
Bryan Stearns to make sure that turning off sections is the same as
Table view.
Turning off sections is not the same as Table view - it's just Dashboard
with the sections turned off. (There's more to Dashboard than just
sections.)
(I think the Use Sections menu item can go away: it was a temporary hack
when sectioning wasn't usable.)
