Come back from vacation and mark the folders as Active again and everything else should be as you left it.

Good hack. However, I am not sold on having to change my workflow constantly to make up for the lack of this feature.
When I go home in the evening after work, I want my Focus to be 'Family'. On the weekend, I want it to be 'Home' so that I can get my home projects done. When, I am back at office, I need to change my focus back to 'Work'. Friday evening's, I usually divert my focus to 'Entertainment' to check the list of 'Restaurants' that I want to go and / or 'Movies' I want to watch. I also keep a list of 'Bar's and Strip Clubs' that I like to hang out with my buddies, when my wife and kids are not in town ;-)
When I am traveling on business trips to Europe and Asia, I need to alternate my Focus between, 'Work' during the day and 'Travel' & 'Entertainment' after the days proceedings so that I can buy the gifts and souvenirs back home or visit a particular art museum that I have been planning for a year.
These are just some of the example's why 'Focus' is so important. I cannot possibly keep changing the status every day on all 'Folder's so that I can zero-in my focus on one. Not a viable solution.
Thanks.
