As I promised Bryan on IRC, I have attempted a more detailed write-up of the proposal I alluded to in my [Last call] summary of the 'triage list view - sorting' thread: http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/design/2007-May/007165.html
[snip]
That is because according to this proposal, the 3 categories of items listed above won't be sorted on dateLastModified. Instead, they will be sorted on their event dates, custom alarm dates and dates sent respectively, which may be drastically different from their dateTriageToDone. But both Pieter and I agree that's okay because users are more likely to remember events by event dates, tickled items by custom alarm dates and messages by dates sent than they are liable to remember such items by dateTriagedToDone. (Is that correct Pieter?)
yes, and here I'm particularly thinking about reviewing items that may be several months (or even year's old) in a Done section that has several thousand items (which for example I have when I import my current Palm calendar).
The use cases that suffer in this new paradigm are: + Oops, I didn't mean to Triage that item to DONE yet. Let me retrieve it. + What did I accomplish Today? + I know I triaged it to DONE in the last hour...
Just wondering, is there a way to use the search feature to create a collection of all items that have dateTriagedToDone=today?
But I now agree with Pieter that the DONE section as an Archive is more important than the use cases listed above.
