   > Also improved ResponseContext serialization. Previously the result of 
serialization was truncated if its length was greater than the limit. I believe 
it would be better to keep the context structure and make it deserializable 
thus the process of serialization removes max-length fields completely from the 
context until the final result length doesn't exceed the limit.
   
   I haven't looked at the code , but this is definitely an incompatibility 
with previous behavior, so should be tagged as such . It should also be 
mentioned in release notes. I don't think most customers would care about it.
   Now, if possible, a better strategy might be to retain all keys but trim the 
bigger ones so to keep serialized response limited.
   Or, don't change the behavior since we haven't had use cases where this has 
been a problem so far. In general, it might be good to keep refactoring sort of 
PRs separate from PRs that introduce a change in behavior.
   Finally, if this PR does get merged with a behavioral change, then should be 
tagged `incompatible` .
