I'm using Categories to display major task groups and related subgroups, which is what I thought it was intended for and why I'm using TC. Within any subgroups, associated tasks can/will be a mix of hi/med/low priority. As for hiding the future tasks... that's not what I prefer. I like to glance at the tasks scheduled for tomorrow so I realize the importance of completing certain tasks today.
