I think @context lists /are/ your nextactions lists.  So you could have a Next
Actions lists called @desk or @home etc.  i.e. (to labour the point!) @desk is
a Next Actions list.

Then you could just have an @misc or @nextactions list for the catchall.

That's right.  Context lists are just a way of dividing up your next
action lists so that you only need to view the next actions for the
context(s) that you are working in at the moment.  If you have next
actions that don't fit in one of your context lists, then you may be
missing a context, such as @anywhere, or they may not be "next"
actions.  Generally, it is much easier to review five lists of ten next
actions than one list of 50 next actions.  However, you do want to
maintain some grasp on your overall list, since sometimes you may need
to change contexts to work on higher priority items.
