Another reason for starting a context with a character other than "@" is to allow some natural groupings whenever contexts are shown alphabetically. For example, five or six contexts that I use constantly start with "*" or "#" which puts them to the top of the lis

I have a context "@Waiting" A lot of standalone tasks have that status. For example, if I buy something online and it's supposed to show up next Tuesday before 8PM I'll create a task "received widget from storename" with start set to Tuesday 20:00 and context @waiti
