This is intended behavior, according to support. It's supposed to remind you to assign a context. (I find it annoying.) However, if you select the "Contexts" folder in the Context mode sidebar, you won't see them anymore.

In response to your previous post: If you know you want to work on one or a few projects and not see everything else, switch to Planning mode, select those projects in the sidebar (you can use command-click to select discontiguous projects), and then click Focus. OmniFocus will now focus on those projects, and when you switch back to Context mode, it will display only actions from those projects.

To see everything, click Show All (which is what the Focus button becomes once you've focused). Focus and Show All are also available from the View menu or keystroke control-command-F.
