Comment (by timo):
Rather than try/except, it would probably be better to do:
{{{
if not hasattr(self, 'context'):
raise TemplateSyntaxError(...)
}}}
And make the message less definitive (e.g. include the original exception
message and add "Did you use {{ block.super }} in a base template?". I am
not sure, but there might be other cases where context could be missing so
including the original exception could be helpful just in case.
