Currently you can always create a static project which gives you total 
control over how stuff should be organized. But I'll probably add 
folder/file sorting as an option for folder references in the future.

You can hold down option and click a file to enter rename. Double click 
is currently used to open the file in the associated program, which is 
very useful for non-textual files. There's also the matter that 
TextMate doesn't activate the drawer on single click, making your 
requests not very doable with the current system.

I do plan to make it a bit more like Finder in the future, but the 
activation thing will still be an issue. I don't know for how long 
you've used TM, but the single-click thing is probably just a matter of 
getting used to it, and then you'll start to curse it if I actually 
switch to requiring a double click to open a file ;)

Soft wrap is toggled for file type, so while it is sticky, it's only 
sticky for the current file type. Now that there is scoping I'll remove 
this behavior and instead allow it as a scope setting.
