Tilgham,
Sure, that works too, but I needed access to context taken from the sip
entry because I needed to goto(${that_context}), and that context varies
depending on the phone used.
This is when setting __TRANSFER_CONTEXT in my cookie cutter really
big/complexe/database driven extension. I get
__TRANSFER_CONTEX=transfer_context, but once in [transfer_context] I send
the call to the right specific context using a Goto cmd.
Else I would need to replicate that big extension for each of those outgoing
context, which is, from a coding perspective, error prone when modifications
are made later.

I suspect others are making this far more complicated than it needs to be.
The typical setup is to create included contexts in your dialplan, like in:
[local-calls-only]
include => local-calls
[unrestricted-calls]
include => local-calls
include => long-distance
include => international
If you're wanting to find out the top context, even though you're in an
included context, then just use ${CONTEXT}. Your context doesn't actually
change when you're using an included context, which is why this works.
There's no need to make it any more complicated.
