That’s the only thing that bothers me about Context: whenever you
come across a neat problem you think you should go about
implementing, you can be dead sure there’s already a
full-fledged, highly optimized solution in the core somwhere.
(Unless, of course, it’s something related to bibliography ;-) .)

On a more serious note: thanks for the pointer, this is good
reading! All the camel casing makes it look oldish, though.
