Coming late to the party and I'm almost sure that the following will not
satisfy you, but maybe it'll help the rest of us understand what you are
really after (afaict, that's still not clear - apologies if I'm
generalizing unwarrantedly).
Say you have project foo with project file foo.org:
,----
| #+STARTUP: showall
| *** Long list of project items
| **** a
| **** b
| **** c
| DEADLINE: <2010-04-28 Wed>
| **** d
| **** e
| **** f
|
| **** g
|
| **** h
| DEADLINE: <2010-04-28 Wed>
| **** i
| **** j
`----
Items c and h are due today. I assume you have added the file to your
agenda list. Then you look at your agenda and you get:
,----
| Week-agenda (W17-W18):
| Wednesday 28 April 2010
| ...
| foo: Deadline: c
| foo: Deadline: h
| ...
| Thursday 29 April 2010
| ...
`----
Click on the c line and press <RET>: you are in foo.org, on item c,
and there's your context. Ditto for the h line in the agenda.
If this does not satisfy you, what would you like to have seen instead?
HTH in some small way,
Nick
