Steph, Indeed this can be addressed in the views as you suggest but two things:
a) as I pointed out, sometimes I'm working in the native tree (full outline) and that's where I want to work, not in a view. b) If this change affects just 1/4 of my typical daily views (and it may be more like 1/2) that's 5 views I have to modify and maintain. 1. If I make new/other views, it's yet one more parameter I have to remember to enforce. 2. If I have other, less-often used views I may not update them promptly or remember when needed causing me confusion or even frustration. None of which is desirable. This could be reasonable as a workaround but I have to regard it as just a workaround. I believe Project Status should be user configurable and should dictate the status of a project (eg. active or not.) It is a logical extension of the feature and imo good for the workflow. J.
