But is there a common use case? For var.get() I'd rather just pass the
default or catch the exception if the flow is different. Using ctx[var] is
rare (mostly for printing contexts, and perhaps for explaining var.get()).


I don't think that it would be a common use case. Maybe we don't need
is_set(), I'm fine with catching an exception.

But for introspection at least, it would help to expose the default as a
read-only attribute, no?

Another example of a mapping with default value:

https://docs.python.org/dev/library/collections.html#collections.defaultdict

And defaultdict has a default_factory attribute. The difference here is
that default_factory is mandatory. ContextVar would be simpler if the
default would be mandatory as well :-)
