Utility Drawer Functionality

Hello everybody,

I've been reading (and surfing) in-and-around Getting Things Done (see an 
amazon link here: tinyurl.com/bssz7; or on the web at 
wiki.43folders.com/index.php/Getting_Things_Done) and think that OO could be 
the perfect app for GTD.

The key, methinks, is using the Utility Drawer as the master project list. 
My issue is that I need to create projects and organize them into groupings 
(e.g. COURSES/PSY1010, COURSES/PSYCH3500, etc.).

Now, it is pretty easy to click on the major grouping in the Utility Drawer 
(e.g. COURSES) and then click COMMONLY USED ACTIONS button and choose 
HIDE/SHOW (or CTL-Click on the grouping and choose HIDE/SHOW)  but I wonder 
if it would be possible via AppleScript (or, more likely, this is a feature 
request) to get a collapsable/expandable triangle in the Utility Drawer? Or 
possibly expand/collapse on a double click of the grouper?

Note that I'm new to Macs, and to OO, so sorry if I'm missing something 
basic.

Regards,

Scott
