Bertrand, now i see what you meant, for me it would be too hard i think.

Windows Live Mail has sidebar (as many other mail clients) which shows folders of email accounts.
When user try make this sidebar a more narrow it turns to vertical toolbar (look at screenshot) which show only inbox folder from each account by default, but user can add any other folder to this vertical toolbar if s/he like.
Also there are numbers how many unread mails in each folder.
Certainly, user may click any folder icon on this vertical toolbar to switch between folders.
Now back to GTG: it would be nice if tag sidebar would have the similar ability: turning to vertical toolbar with colours/icons of tags/lists and numbers of tasks in each.
In this case the window might be really narrow, but still with all functionality that user needs.

Okay, I deleted New search. But wondering how it supposed to create new smart filters?
I thought “smart” means that it's not just search, but a few parameters united in one thing…
