-----------------------------------------

Hi Sebb,

I am not sure what you are looking for in this comment. There are no additional 
risks with this getter method than any of the other getter methods in 
HttpClientContext.

The @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") is needed because Java does not provide a 
way to safely cast a type parameter and for good reason. Due to type-erasure, 
there is no way for this method to ensure that the attribute value object 
actually has a URI parameter type. Like with any parameter typed collection, 
there is a risk that the elements of the collection are not actually of the 
same type.
