Ah, of course! That would work, because you can have more than one context, can't you - so I could have a load of actions tagged with "@waiting #Smith,Bob" and "@call #Smith,Bob", filter the list by #Smith,Bob and come up with a list of ToDos I need to discuss with Bob.
Even better would be to have the ability to link tasks to a name on my contacts list.
