That's where our use cases differ. I have 30-40 SXs, often with more than 10 
reminders plus another 5 or 10 to-creates at a given time. With <10 SXs, I 
can see the desire to have everything there. With the number of SXs I 
typically have to look at, throwing reminders in with the to-creates is too 
much stuff to look at (for me, anyway).
Perhaps a sorted view, then? List Reminders under a heading of "Upcoming 
Transactions" or "Transaction Reminders" and the to-be-created under a 
heading of "Ready to Process Transactions" or "Transactions Ready for 
Processing."

Regards, 
Tim
