Perhaps I misunderstand how "contextual" is interpreted, or at the very least interpret it differently than you do.
Every title in the Binder has the same context.

Think of it as that physical wastepaper basket where crumpled typewriter pages would get tossed when an author's muse wasn't cooperating; they wouldn't haul it out to the recycle bin every time it has two whole pages of paper in it, would they? Be more like that old-fashioned writer--think of the trash as a recovering bin if that helps. Rename it* if that helps; "recovery bin", "manual un-do stack", "the oopsie basket".
