@Daniel Interesting... please can you say a little more about what you actually do. I'm guessing you have a context called "@Someday-maybe" or "~Someday-Maybe". I can see that assigning that Context to a task is dead easy. But when you are working in your Active Tasks workspaces (e.g. doing a daily or weekly review etc) are you also filtering out your Someday-Maybe contexts?
Also when you come to review your Someday-Maybes - do you put them on a dedicated Tab that filters to select just the "Someday-Maybe" contexts. (Confession: I'm not very good at using Contexts yet...) @Dwight Yes I'm using Windows. Yes, I see your plan. It's a slight pain to set up every time you go into MLO but that broadly works, although you do then need to decide where exactly within the Someday-Maybe folder you will put the Task in question... Either way, what do you think of Daniel's solution? I mean if you JUST use Contexts you could avoid using that whole F3 drag and drop thing?
