[appigo-todo] Re: Feature Request: "Custom Lists" or "Filter Lists"

My worst-case use case is a bit more like this:

If I'm on the Focus screen (which I am most often) and I want to see
my "Waiting On List" (implemented with a tag), it's 5 clicks:

1. Click "tag"
2. Click my "WaitingOn" tag
3. Click done
4. Click "lists"
5. Click "all"

If I could save a list of "All tasks marked "WaitingOn", it would be 2
clicks (click "lists", click the list)

Other use-cases would be going from my Focus list to my "Errands"
context, 4 clicks (click "Contexts", click "Errands", click "lists",
click "all")

I don't think the UI would be impacted too much if they're just added
as lists like any other created lists on the main list screen. I
already have a bunch of custom lists for projects, these would just be
more in the stack. If you don't need a custom search list, then you
won't ever see 'em.
