[mylar-dev] removing Commit Context from Task List menu

The Commit Context action on the Task List's context menu is problematic because it does not make the user aware of files that might be outside of the task's change set (e.g. because "Mark less interesting" was used on them). For this reason we have always recommended committing the changes for the active task via the Commit action on the corresponding Change Set in the Synchronize view.

I propose that we remove this button from the UI. We discussed this on last week's call and none of those present used this action. If you use it and would miss it please complain here or on the following bug report:
