New UI Missing Tasks and Context

Answered

Is there a way to show the Tasks and Context in the new UI?  I use this feature all the time and find it useful at a quick glance to know what task I am working on when I open the IDE.  I know I can go to the Tools menu to see but that is a bit of a pain.

There's a request to return Tasks & context switcher to the main toolbar by default, please upvote IDEA-296392 and follow it for updates. 

So far you can add task switcher to the toolbar via IDE Settings, please see the description of the mentioned ticket for exact steps.

I was searching for this too. I use it very often. There would be more than enough space to place that in the new window header toolbar.
