It's not trivial to decide, which quests are near to you for several reasons.

First, there are quests, which can be done anywhere in the whole world. (e.g. http://www.wowhead.com/quest=29507/fun-for-the-little-ones) Obviously, there aren't any useful information about the location of such quests. Therefor, such quests can't be tracked automatically by any means. If you like to work on such quests, you have to track them manually.

With that out of the way, we can come to a more sad topic. There are several different hints, the WoW Addon interface provides regarding quest locations. I tried to priorize them in the best order, but it may not be perfect.

Also the information provided isn't always helpful. For instance, dungeon quests give the hint, that they are in the zone, there the dungeon is located. However, I prefer to only show them in the dungeon itself.

Last but not least, zone borders are a hard thing. A quest might be just few steps ahead, but if they are in a different zone, when they will not show up in the tracker.

If you encounter any quests, which are tracked, but should not and vice versa, please let me know.
