I guess I'm confused as to why the active state of a context is a user-definable state instead of an automatic one.
To me, an active context should be something more like "this context has an available/next action in it" -- something that can be determined automatically. The "active" flag seems instead to be intended as an 'enable/disable' flag.
Hmm... maybe that's what I'm asking for. An enable/disable flag for contexts is fine, and I can see some times when you'd want to use that. But I'd really like to be able to filter out contexts lacking actions, so I can look in an instant and know what sorts of things are needing my attention.
Thoughts?
