A tag, a custom column, a virtual library, some way to know the difference based on content, not based on representation (format).

I take it you have no plans to add a "by format" option in the near future ?

I added it to the wish list. I am not yet convinced that it is a good idea.

On a real bookshelf - you'd surely not muddle your appliance manuals in with your paperback novels- you'd group them into two sections ?

Yes, but this has nothing to do with format and everything to do with content. A manual could be a hard back book, a paperback, pages in a spiral binder, separate sheets of paper, a DVD, 35mm slides, or anything else. It is only by accident that for you PDF is exclusively one thing and all other formats are something else. It certainly is not true for me.
