When an app is in the background, it goes into a "quiescent state", meaning its state is preserved and the app is ready for action should you need it again, but the app can't continue doing arbitrary processing, like syncing OmniFocus data.

There are some APIs provided by the OS that allow certain types of processing to continue, like background audio or VOIP. But I don't see anything that would allow OmniFocus syncing.

PS - Here's a good overview from Macworld.
All we need is omnifocus to use the multitasking service called 'Task Completion' this will enable you Im guessing to hit the sync button and close or move to another application and the syncing will continue in the background until completed. Any word Omnigroul if this is the case? Thanks!
