I just 'acquired' the tag/label icon from Eben's mock-ups. Assume he had though about this way more than me :-) Sure there are plenty of revisions, reworks, and cherry picking. > Wishlist: "show files by size" filter or option?

Though arbitrary Journal sorting likely breaks many design goals***, otherwise you'd have thought we would have the most basic of features, sort by creation date, by now ;-) At the very least size taken by an entry should be visible on the details view. Right now there is zero indication other than just watching your total Journal grow in size via it's frame icon. ***Eben can you clarify this one? If locking folks into a 'view Journal only by modification date' was an intentional design choice?
