Comment:

 Not necessarily sold on adding a method as the solution, but the idea
 (allowing for extra_context) is certainly valid.

 If you want to simply add context to a step of a FormWizard there are
 currently two documented ways, both of which have shortcomings...

 1. Override `render_template`.  The problem with this is quite a bit is
 happening in the to the variables in the context.  The user mostly has to
 copy/paste the code, get it right, and hope this method doesn't change out
 from underneath him for future releases, just to add context.

 2. Override `process_step`.  If the above turns the user's stomach, this
 seems like the next best place.  The problem, as noted in the
 documentation, is that "... this method is called every time a page is
 rendered for all submitted steps."  If you are only adding context, not
 processing anything, this can result in a pretty heavy load, for example
 if you are doing database calls to get a list of objects to display on a
 certain step.

 I'm proposing adding a method just for adding context to any given step,
 and make it called only when the step is rendered.
