Wow Contexts looks incredibly well designed. I'm not sure I'll actually use it over my current Hammerspoon setup, but they combine all my favorite quick selection techniques like smart ordering, fuzzy matching, providing two-character hints which will definitely select a certain item, persisting things to keep hints consistent, shortcuts where you press a modifier type and then release to activate ...

What I really want now is for Alfred to copy all of Contexts search features so that I can use them for generic search matching in Alfred workflows.

Oh I hadn't noticed, that's real sad. Their "upcoming" feature of showing window tabs is something that would be necessary for me.
