Great ideas, but I think they might be a little to complex to keep EasyList easy and simple.

I've created EasyList with one goal in mind and that's simpleness. I've seen a few list apps which were a bit to advanced for my likings. They all have their good points, but usually when my gf sends me a shopping list :') through e-mail I just want to copy that text and paste it into a list program which generates a checkable list from it.
I can then do shopping and hopefully never forget an item again.

I've based the functionality of EasyList on my own use-cases:
- Paste text into the app and let it generate a list.
- It needs to work in portrait, because I don't want to hold the phone with both hands when shopping.
- Need to switch to landscape mode automatically when keyboard is opened.
- Sort checked items to bottom
- Save the list and checked states for later use

I really do appreciate your input and ideas and they are great ideas. I just felt that I owe you an explanation when I decide that your ideas might be to complex for the purpose of the app. I hope you can understand.

Thanks for checking out EasyList.
