IMO, Jacque makes a number of valid points. In the Project Browser,
because stacks and cards are contained in the single view, a long list of
controls will remove any stack and card references from view, while in the
Application Browser, stacks and cards are always visible. It seems like
applying an Application Browser layout to the Project Browser could make
it more useful: move stack/card references to a left pane that is always
visible.
For myself, I also often rely on numerical references: card numbers, layer
numbers, etc. Filtering in the Project Browser is great, but it's not the
same as sorting offered by the Application Browser (AFAICT the Project
Browser doesn't offer sorting that I can see).
You can choose to sort layers from top to bottom, or bottom to top in
Preferences, but there's no option to sort by anything other than layers.
Suppose the project browser had a slide-out left panel that listed the
stacks and cards, like the app browser does now? Maybe it could be a
preference, and if it's turned off, the PB works the way it currently
does. If the panel option is turned on, it would keep its selection but
get out of the way if you need the screen space. People could choose if
they wanted to view by stack/card/object hierarchy with a panel, or just
single-list as it is now.
I definitely need card numbers and object IDs.
