Review Comment:
   The concern is not whether the `RealmContext` is recreated, but the items 
that are supposed to be scoped to a realm and reused across requests. Some 
examples off the top of my head are
   * EntityCache
   * Threadpools for background work
   * HTTP clients for remote caches or token validation
   * DB Connection pools
   
   There are a lot of good reasons to want to reuse resources across requests 
(e.g., https connections are expensive and we want to reuse them as much as 
possible), but it's important that these resources are scoped to specific 
realms (we don't want to look up `server_admin` from one realm when processing 
a request for another).
   
   I do get the concern about subtle bugs, though. That's one reason I added an 
explicit test to validate the entity cache is scoped to the realm and reused 
across requests. More tests and validation would be good for comfort.
   
   We could wrap all the realm-scoped stuff in factories with hash maps, like 
the `MetaStoreManagerFactory`, but... it just means we have to write factories 
for all those things. And then, as I commented to Dmitri, the intention becomes 
less clear - if readers believe a bean is request-scoped, but is actually 
supplied from a cache and reused across requests, it may be unclear if the 
object is safe for concurrent modification.
