I do have contexts with names like these and perspectives to match, but often they have so many tasks in them that I want different perspectives to slice and dice them in different ways.

Suppose I have a context (or context hierarchy) like "Work/..." or "Home/...". I might have 700+ tasks under Home and a one size fits all perspective doesn't cut it.

As a consequence, I might have perspectives like (not the actual names!):
- Home-Flagged
- Home-Due
- Home-Available
- Home-Sorted-By-Project
- Home-Flagged-And-Sorted-By-Due
etc.

Similarly I have sub contexts under home like Home/Chores that I might also want several different perspectives for.

You can see how the number of useful perspectives can grow quite quickly and a flat list of them becomes quite cumbersome.
