On the principle of those who care about a feature should figure out
how to make it work, I'm interested in hearing suggestions from you on
how to make this feature be optional.  I believe I require that the
default behavior be non-expiring contexts because I believe that
creates a more usable experience.


If you don't come up with a good solution it probably will not be
optional at least in the first cut.
