I use source member filters in the Remote Systems Explorer perspective to group together source members in a "project". They link directly to the server source, so bypass that extra step of promotion with iProjects. With careful and consistent naming of the filters you can keep control of your work history.
Expanding on that, I use multiple connections to the same IBM i (to control library lists) and multiple profiles (to separate old, current and "on hold" projects.)
You don't get to move projects around easily (you need to select the contained source members and operate on them that way) but this is the most comfortable method for me that I've found so far.
I'm always eager to learn of other people's setups.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] iProjects greyed out Source functions
Sent by: wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Is there a way to group a number of source members together into something like a project? The most logical perspective would be iProject you would hope, but that really only complicates the process by adding another layer of source you have to make sure is synchronized on the server side. I don't really need to work offline. We have a change management tool which is good for promoting and checking out, but it lacks good source grouping for projects.
