I for one like this idea.

One problem with GTD is all the friction involved. The apps tend to absorb too much time/attention/effort with their fiddly UI bits, and then one must spend time & effort retrieving & restoring prior context (mental & otherwise) in order to get into the swing of something.

If the Next Button did what this article describes, whilst also presenting a shortlist of other things it could fire up and drop me into right away - frictionlessly - a sort of "batteries included" desktop - I'd be into it.
