This is a non-standard implementation of a Context...

-1  *if* Blocks must aquire it using a cast, because it makes them
unnecessarily dependent on Phoenix. Unnecessarily since this is a general
concept.

This can be done also as a Service, so it gets inserted as a dependency; 
if it must stay in the Context, it should be gotten from the context via 
a key that is declared in xinfo (I propose it to be standard).
