Comment 4 for bug 461171

Tim,

*As for showing you the "Loading" menu forever, that sounds like a bug. Is
this reproducible?*
I don't have another phone to reproduce it. However on the same phone it
always happens.

*There is no mechanism for displaying "all tags except xyz".*
What happens is that I see my widget that something is due (it's in red). I
really like this widget. I then click the widget and enter into Astrid.
Sometimes it hangs forever saying "Loading...". Other times it sends me to a
particular tag. What I would like to happen is to see all tags (except
underscored ones*), but especially the ones that are due. This would be much
better than wasting time thinking "What tag was that red one under?".
Perhaps it is asking too much, but it would be really nice.

*my underscored tags are for shopping lists and other things like that I
only want to see at a single time and no other.
