Feature Request: SSID-based contexts
 
First of all, big fan of OmniFocus and it's become an integral part of daily life.

I appreciate the location-based contexts that allow reminders based on very specific locations. However I live in a small town where different contexts are often within walking distance from each other. My workplace is 7 minutes walk from my home, and my grocery is around the corner. This means I get random alerts all day for location-based contexts, even with very exact location definitions.

So I was wondering if instead of using GPS locations for contexts, whether it would be a nice addition to be able to define WiFi SSID's that my iPhone would logon to in that specific location, like the WiFi at Work.

Obviously pushing a notification might be impossible as I believe that isn't supported in the CaptiveNetwork Framework. But at least OmniFocus could automaticall show the tasks available at the current location when I launch the app. Additionally, maybe iOS 7's background multi-tasking might enable something more fleshed out in this direction?
