  One is to aggregate metadata output from multiple fixer tool executions to 
display a summary at the end (so wrapping cleanup() is sensible). Not sure who 
else would use that, or if there's a good way to make a generic interface for 
it.
  
  Another is basically to add a "--nodeid_for_this_file=deadbeef" to a fixer 
tool command line. That's where it would be sufficient to have the ctx 
available. It might be nice to put the ctx into the templater, but that raises 
some questions about implementation that I wanted to punt for now.

Fixer.command, and maybe add a no-op Fixer.cleanup method to make that part 
more explicit. I think that would be a less trivial super set of this patch.
