Here is a quick/ugly applescript I threw together that allows one to:

1. select multiple contexts
2. set all the filters
3. focus on a folder (or show all)
4. set or clear the search field

Just put in the values you want and save it with a meaningful name.

Some notes:

1. Applescript support for the sort fiter seems to be broken on Omni's end, so leave it blank for now.
2. Context selection is based on name-matching, so non-unique context names will only select the first instance.
3. Same for focusing on a folder
4. When onmi allows focusing on a project, more code will be required
5. There are a few calls to System Events, which is too bad, but what can you do.
6. I don't really know applescript well, so I'm sure there are parts that could have been accomplished better.

--Set smart parameters below. Empty strings leave existing setting.

--context(s)
property contextNames : {""} --a list of context names you want selected.  
-- *** if context names are not unique, only first instance will be selected ***

--filter settings
property contextGroupValue : "active-contexts" --choose from {"all-contexts","active-contexts"} 
property groupValue : "" --choose from {"none","context","due","start","competed","added","modified"}
property sortValue : "" --choose from {"none","name","due","start","complete","add","modified"}
-- *** sorting seems to be broken on Omni's end - leave it blank for now ***
property taskStateValue : "" --choose from {"all","next","available","incomplete","flagged","complete"}
property taskDurationValue : "" --choose from {"any","5m","15m","30m","60m","long","unestimated"}

--folder/project to focus on.  Use "All" to show all.
property focusFolderName : ""

--search Term.  Use "Clear" to force-clear the search term.
property searchTermValue : ""
