Documents, Documents, Documents

The only thing that is really work for me on a computer is documents. Consequently I want them to be neater.

I want to be able to be writing in a document and then realize that what I'm writing more properly belong in another document. I highlight what I've written, right-click and select 'save as new document.' Similarly, if I've already sectioned off a part of a document as a separate doc I should be able to do some sort of control+click to open it up in its own separate document window.

A large part of why I want something like this is visualization. I want to know what I have been doing and I want to see it clean and clear. Google Docs has some interesting stuff on the Doc List homepage. You can tag a document as belonging to say both 'work' and 'fiction' or you can sort by who you've collaborated on a document with. But what I think is missing from this is a sort of intra-document labeling and identifying system.

Say I'm writing something for a novel and it happen to be a section on specific theme--say road trips, cause I write about those a lot--then I can label the small section as belonging to that larger theme. After I'm done writing that section I could visit the 'road trip' doc and take a look at the entire body of my work about road trips. This would let me see if I'm being repetitive, using similar phrases and it could even allow be to get a better view of what I'm saying about that activity in its entirety.

I'm sure there are countless things you could do once you open up intra-document distinctions.
