Hi Jim,

I think this could be very useful.  I have several times found myself in
the situation where I have forgotten to activate a task before starting
to work on it.  Having a default context/task would enable me to e.g.
use the new "Copy context to" functionality to transfer the context from
the default context to the correct task.

Best regards,
Fredrik
