James - a `uintptr_t` instead of `ContFlags` would require the assumption a
continuation always runs on the same thread, which is not the case. `ContFlags`
ensures that the continuation gets the thread based flags regardless of the
thread on which it executes. On the other hand if you mean doing the thread
specific stuff in `Continuation` I would think it's clearly better to isolate
that stuff in `ContFlags`.
