After taking an unintended several-month hiatus from WK and amassing 2000 reviews that I have yet to make a dent in, I’m finding that I’m failing a lot of them because I’ve since forgotten things that WK assumes I still remember at this point.

[image] UInt2048: Just out of curiosity, do you plan to add the opposite as well (current level first)? Probably not anytime soon. We’d like to avoid building in any options that can unwittingly lead people into traps (runaway backlogs). We have some ideas for mechanisms that could serve as…
