Borrowing from <http://chandlerproject.org/Projects/ScreenShots> and very
hastily thrown together: 

1. consider the heights of the blue bars in the mini calendar, signinfiying
activity ... flagposts, if you like:

2. take the summary table, tip it sideways, lose all the text, ignore all
things that are done

3. two end points: now, later

4. between those end points: something more, if you like ... whatever suits
you, don't worry about their names

5. an idea: 

http://n2.nabble.com/file/n3007748/birdseye.jpg 

I'm not sure what to call it, but it's like a bird's eye view.

The strips of green and amber, left to right, need not be fixed width. 

In the midst of green and amber there might be glints of gold (stars) and
red (conflicts).

You might like a Chandler to present the strips with bulges (with or without
flagposts) and gaps. 

I might click a button that allows my preferred order of collections to be
shuffled by this Chandler, temporarily, according to blue dots, bulges,
gaps, stars etc.. 

None of that to replace the summary table that we already have, but it's the
sort of thing that I'd like to play with. 

How would you sketch a bird's eye view to suit you, to suit your
organisation?

What would you do with a blank canvas?
