I believe Brandon meant to say "explicit", since his example is certainly more explicit than the current pyglet behaviour.
For the record, I argued against the implicit behavior. It's related to the automatic shadow window which has caused a bunch of issues over time. On the other hand, we don't (generally, when the shadow window works) get errors from people loading images before there's a valid GL context. So it's a tough call to make. And in the end Alex had the final say, and I think he was right to err on the side of programmer-friendliness, so that's why we have it now.
