I kind of like the ability to zero-in on the kind of things you can do at the moment based on repeated filtering (say, first select your location.. home, work etc., then the kind of task you can do.. email, phone, etc. If only I could filter that fast on the effort too.. ) I guess what I am trying to request is if this (repeated filtering) can be a configurable behaviour? -- Manish
