I suppose I was thinking too simplistically like in Outlook you tag a task as 'in progress' or something like that, and then in Omni Outliner you can add specific styling which gives a nice visual aid ... but I think OF might be workable with a sort of 'status' tag with contexts, I just hadnt thought of that!

I think if you get away from the strict notion of what context is, and use context as different categorization, then it opens up OF to a whole new set of ways you can organize. In fact, you can create a mother context (Status) and then have sub contexts such as in progress, waiting, postponed, etc. Also, OF allows you to select multiple contexts for viewing, and then saving those as perspectives . . .

I think if you experiment with these, you will find the work flow that is just right for you.
