You could do that by using tags with exact these names. Then search by tag name and add the search as a favorite to your project list. That may not be exactly what you are looking for but it is very similar and - in my case - is very hand.

Yeah, we do a similar thing with drop-down custom fields. The slight advantage there is that you can change the drop-down option very easily in the task list, without having to delete one tag and add another.
