Instances of grpc.ServicerContext
<https://grpc.io/grpc/python/grpc.html#grpc.ServicerContext> are indeed
per-RPC objects, but their role is to afford certain data and behaviors to
service-side applications and to accept certain other data from
service-side applications. We'd be reluctant to expand their scope to
include "a place to put stuff until later".

If your application has state that you only need to last as long as the
evaluation of a single behavior (per-RPC state), why is a behavior-local
field ("local variable") not the right place to store that state?
