Hm, then it's still not clear to me exactly what a context is. Is it
just a namespace that I can make for my variables with whatever names
or are they in some way connected to classes and their definitions?
It would be a really neat feature if I could access a variable based
on which classes are defined with a syntax like that (without actually
setting the classes, just accessing values based on a `what if'
scenario). Feature for next release? :-)
