Yes. Minimizing the arguments being passed to `RuntimeContext` was the
motivation. I thought about putting every task specific field into the TaskInfo
object but since it isn't a real problem, hesitated.
Should I do that then? I certainly like the idea. The constructors for
`RuntimeContext` are somewhat messy, and doing this would make any future
changes to contexts a lot easier.
