Reading List Feature
Hi, I created this post because I think Zotero would benefit from a reading list feature. Here is the proposed workflow:
1. You add a paper from the web browser extension.
2. A list in the sidebar (in the area where My Publications, Duplicate Items, Unified Items, Trash are at), have an option: Reading List.
3. The paper is **automatically** added to that.
4. It is basically a list that you can check papers off of, and then it removes them.
5. You should be able to set deadlines on reading the papers and priorities (they would appear a different color).
This can be done manually, but I think it would be nice to have this feature automatically. Please let me know if you agree!

Upgrade Storage
__to be filed
__to be read
__to be OCRed
__to be translated
I usually select the '__to be filed' collection when saving new PDFs via the Web Connector. From there I read them and decide which collections they should be moved to ('__to be read' is more for PDFs that I decide later need to be (re)read).
You can add additional custom items to the list of predefined "tags".
