I understand the *motivation* for the Context class, but not why it is *essential*. As I say, I
haven't read this latest draft at all, but as far as I remember, in previous drafts there were
no other features that depended on having the Context class, or used it in their examples. Not
having it, or having a different version of it, won't impact the rest of the proposal.
Remember that "moved to a separate RFC" does not mean "released in a different
version of PHP", it just means "has more space to discuss details". There's so
much to decide here, that we should take any chance we can to break it into smaller pieces.
