I didn't say the content was of no future use, just at the time of
creation I might not be sure ;-) It provides a useful history of
things you've done for review/modification/re-use.

That problem is also having much effort put into it try and improve.
The big one would have been the thumbs Journal view, but that has now
slipped from 0.86 due to time constraints :-( Smarter auto-titles are
I think a lower hanging fruit, and one that can be worked on partly
out of the pressure of the core release cycle.
