Great App! Missing easily-integrated features, however

I LOVE this application! It is perfect for my style and needs!! It doesn't
look as though it is getting the praise deserved, though!

I find a couple of features missing that I'd really like, and are probably
desireable for others as well. They should not be too difficult to integrate
into the application, as they are established in WORD.

1. The ability to GROUP objects, and manipulate these groupings based on a
grouped set of properties. (Change fonts, password protect or encrypt,
email, etc.) Though we can CUT or COPY these objects via multi-select by
CTRL+clicking (this does not work with all object types, however,) a grouping
would be a LOT more convienient, and follows the established methodology in
other MS applications.

2. The ability to change Notebook structure. The only way to delete
notebooks is to close them, knowing their specific locations (shared
notebooks make this a bit more difficult depending on location,) and deleting
them by hand. Users should have the ability to move, delete, copy, etc.
these objects on a larger scale. I agree with what I assume to be the
ideology of NOT allowing notebook deletion (data preservation?) but with one
or two "are you sures" for verification, it would make life much easier-
especially during the initial new user learning curve.

Word is a totally different kind of beast ;-)
ON is not just a subset of Word or so and it's written completely
different.

For idea 2, you can right click the Notebook, select Properties and Change
the Location ("move") the notebook.
