There are two areas you need to be concerned with - registration of
MIB information, and access control.
For the first, your subagent or MIB module would probably need to
register the relevant table(s) and scalar object(s) multiple times - once
for each context that you are interested in.
As for access control, if you use the fulller "group/view/access"
approach, then you should be able to specify a context of ""
and a prefix value of "prefix" (rather than "exact"). This would
match all possible context strings, and hence allow any valid
context to be passed to your handler routine.

You shouldn't need to touch this, as long as you've registered your
MIB objects in all of the appropriate contexts.
