One proposed solution has been to simply assign some kind of "review" context to your parents to keep them out of the "No Context" bin.
The argument against this, as others have noted before me, is that a "default context" for parents imposes that context upon its children, which breaks many workflows (my own included), because (A) not everything in a project should get that default context and (2) a missing context is valuable to find incomplete loops.

This is certainly a potential solution, and I'd love to see it tested. After a little more living on 1.8, this appears the most viable alternative.
