Comment (by pembo13):
I understand. `render_to_response` used to take a `context_instance`, and
there used to be documentation on subclassing `Context`. So while not
directly mentioned, it was definitely possible to create a subclass of
`Context` or `RequestContext` and use it with `render_to_response`.
That's currently not possible with the current code, as of 1.10, which is
fine. But it might be worth a note saying that explicitly.
