Linear focus mode
When planning my day it's useful to have a vertically stacked list, as Workflowy currently supports.
However, when doing my tasks, my mental model is horizontal - it mimics the passing of time. A vertically stacked list is like an impenetrable block, it can be overwhelming. I can only do one job at a time, so a gantt chart isn't appropriate.
What I'd like is a very simple focus mode that shows you your current task with a count of completed tasks (e.g. 2/40 tasks done) and a button to mark as complete. Clicking it loads the next task. Add some next/previous task buttons as well.

Have you tried switching the view to "board" when you start working? It's a horizontal model that I think does a great job of showing you what you've done. Just have "To Do", "Doing", and "Done" columns and drag the tasks between them or use keyboard shortcuts to move or complete them.
