Jelmer,

The only place where a list of contexts was ever used was
with the guest passdb backend.  That one is easier enough to
hard code.  The overhead needed to modify the API for a
single functions is just silly.  This idea is interesting,
but is never used.

Sorry.  But the voting closed a few days ago while you were
on vacation and the changes have been checked in.





cheers, jerry
