“Context” can be presented in minibuffer with minimal configuration if you use one of the following constructs already available:

- Directory ([config example in wiki](https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/wiki/User-contributed-Tricks#filtering-by-subdirectory))
- Tags (see README and documentation of `org-roam-node-display-template`)
- Parent headlines (for headline-nodes; [config example](https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/wiki/User-contributed-Tricks#showing-node-hierarchy))

You can add a custom property (:context:) and show it on the minibuffer, too, but I would try to stick to available options such as these above.

“Encapsulation” can be achieved by passing a filter function to `node-find`. Some examples are documented in the [wiki](https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/wiki/User-contributed-Tricks#some-filter-fn-examples).

You indicated your aversion to some options above. Perhaps you could give us some of your real examples and discuss the matter further. As for me, I would not have an issue of clashing titles — my titles are rather long, which can be an issue in itself…
