We have here a good example of the interest of having logical links/copies of tasks, which we have already discussed before. This way, we could have a task belonging to several branches of the outline, and for each change of one, the other one would be impacted as well. For exemple, a task "phone the bank" could belong to the project "apply for a loan", and the project "report the loss of my credit card". These projects are distinct but share a same "next action" at one moment. You will say "set a context for "@ phone with bank", but, come on, you'll end up with a very huge amount of contexts, and they are not collapsable/expandable. And some task can be "make identity photos", for such or such projet, what's the sense to have a context "photobooth".
