This is probably a question for the user list Angel, geoserver-devel is
focused for the developers working on the GeoServer codebase.
I think you have the wrong idea about the web map context is a client
standard. The idea being that you can create a map in one client, export
out a "context" file describing what is on screen, and then load it up in
another client for the same visual.
The web map context recently got a lot easier to use, they threw out their
work and made a combination of atom+ogc request. It is not great as now
clients have to "parse" the requests to figure out what WFS, WMS, WCS
content is involved etc... but it is clear from an interoperability
standpoint.
Reference points:
- GeoServer has a map data structure that as far as I know is not used, we
could use it to maintain a list of context documents for use in client
applications but have not done so at this time
- I know that deegree had "hijacked" an earlier version of the context
specification to try and use it as configuration files for their portal. In
this case their "portal" was acting as a client and assembling a web client
based on the provided description.
TLDR: GeoServer operates as a server, web map context is a standard for
clients
