I think you have not seen either the mockups. zeitgeist engine is
designed for group activities in the documents.

for example you looked at all the pictures as a photo album, when you
open the documents menu will appear:

+ images you've seen today (dropdown menu)
- or:
+ g-spot pictures you've seen today (dropdown menu)

+ images you have opened / edited (dropdown menu)



PD:in this way is not a nightmare to navigate between files, it's not my
idea its zeitgeist developers vision. i agree with them.
