In my job I regularly have to switch between a large number of MPS projects. There are sample projects, libraries, customer projects, and so on. MPS offers a nice “welcome screen” where projects can be organized into groups and looked up by simply typing their names.

Action popup, Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+A
:
