I agree that this document is really helpful, but I puzzled over the same issue
as Rafal, and was about to post to the list before Rafal beat me to it. We've
been adding the same kind of objects to the Context by subclassing (in our case)
TurbineWebMacroService and overriding getContext(), but on reading the
document I began to worry that there was something dangerous about doing that.
I know that I could study the source carefully and find the answer, but I would
also welcome it if someone with more experience than me could critically review
the difference between these two approaches.
Thanks,
Tom
