As for context ... context objects, imho, should be used only when there is no other option. They are basically global variables, with all the pitfalls that entails without any of the benefits. Plus, there's a ton of bookkeeping involved and every single object needs to know about it, and possibly every single method. It is messy, dangerous, and ugly.
My point is that you're taking a system designed for a very specific purpose and extrapolating it out to a generic concept. That's a dangerous thing to do and you're doing it poorly.

I shouldn't have to say this, but any code, unless otherwise stated, is untested
