Please support uploading the context for multiple tasks from within the Task List. This would enable common use cases for some users, such as uploading all of the contexts for a group of recently closed tasks.  

It seems like you might also look at including other context actions in the multi-select case.  For instance, why can't you clear multiple tasks' context at a time?

Thank you for your request. It does not fall into the core scope of the project and due to time constraints we are unable to resolve it at the moment. The bug has been marked helpwanted though to indicate that we would be happy to support a community contribution to resolve it.
