You then are automatically prompted to either mark it as complete or add further subtasks.
Most projects and action groups don't have a context, so the question we always had about this was "where would you see that group in context mode"? (Originally OmniFocus didn't have a "No Context" sidebar section, and later that section wasn't filterable.)

But now that we've made it possible to filter the "No Context" section, I think this is a totally reasonable approach. This change would also give us a good place to list due projects in the Due perspective.
