Perhaps, but I'm not sure that an app totally aware of (and using) thread-
local contexts should also use process-wide contexts. It would be for 
interaction with code possibly unaware of thread-local contexts. If you think 
option 3 is the way to go for that, I don't really see a need to also have 
option 1's behavior (and vice-versa).
