I really appreciate this - didn't get to mention it earlier. It is a BIG value add for me and I have been looking forward to it ever since I noted the plans about it.
I use the flags to control the time horizon of tasks I have initiated / committed to. As in, Today (most important); Today; Tomorrow; Week; Weekend; Week_Next; Month and the like. This is a crucial element of making MLO an OPERATIONAL tool for me and not just a project planning tool. It has made it possible to use MLO down to the level of "rubber hits the road" and not just planning and overview and prioritizing. I was never able to just work off the computed scores list for active actions - I have way too many things going on. Also, in order to keep focus, I need the equivalent of writing a list of the day with the things I want to do. To sort of make it firm (but still have it electronic - because half of it slides anyway and other things are taking over). I gave up on MLO first time around, a couple of years ago because I didn't find a way to do this. Knowing it was on the way for Android, I set out to make it work on desktop and then used a "hack" with Android with a grouped by view. This way I could still change flags by drag and drop. But getting the direct interface is what makes it fully usable now. (By the way, if we had mutual exclusive contexts, I would have used that instead of flags. By that, I mean possibility to set up a group of sub-contexts to be mutually exclusive, so that max. one is selected at all times. This would still be a great feature for SO many things. In my case I have the flags blocked out for this crucial time control but there are other uses of this feature as well).
