Context#createChildContext()

[Jonathan Hall]

Hi,

Am I misunderstanding the use/naming of Context#createChildContext() ?

I would have expected it to return an isolated copy of the Context
(which would be useful), however it just returns a new Context()
instance. In which case, I am not sure why it is called a child.

Wouldn't the code be easier to read if we just created a new Context()
ourselves instead of this method?

Doh, nevermind that.

My issue is that the engine sets the ClientDispatcher and
ServerDispatcher when I would like a full copy, attributes etc.
