1PW8 - Missing Category view in left bar

The sidebar in 1Password 7 has problems. It is overloaded, it does too much. There are two different states that present different information (vaults vs categories) and this is confusing, especially to new users. Even I got lost a quite a few times trying to use the sidebar. Dr Wave was extremely unhappy about it when we launched 1Password 7 and he was right.

We don't really have a perfect solution at this time. I personally like the current solution a lot but I also see how it might not be fitting in other users workflow and we should figure this out. (To be fair, I am mostly the "search" and not "organize" person and at the moment I am lobbying for the option to hide the sidebar completely).

So far I saw a few arguments for the old way of presenting categories:

• faster (one-click vs 2-clicks) filtering, let's say to quickly see all Credit Cards.
• showing item counts (to see how many Passports or Driver Licenses are in the vault/account)
• ability to keep the Category selection when navigating between vaults
• the old sidebar better represented the internal structure/model/taxonomy of the data (personally, I would disagree with that)

Did I miss anything else?
