Finder Plug-Ins
I'm still interested creating a view plug-in interface for the Finder under Mac OS X. A view plug-in would be responsible for displaying the contents of a folder and its children. The existing views could be turned into plug-ins (perhaps they're already classes?) and new ones could be created by third-parties.
With such an interface I would implement a "Diary View" plug-in, which would show a virtual structure of a folder's content by relative days like "today", "yesterday", "this week", "this month", "this year" and every year previous. I do this now by organizing my diary by year, but I have to manage this process in lieu of organizing by projects or some other schema. I don't want to manually maintain both using, say, aliases, because, again, that would be too much work. The view by diary date feature would be easy to automate.
