+ * provide implementations of components needed by those services and do
+ * with a single object that implements a host of different
+ * <code>Context</code> interfaces, each of which encapsulates the needs
+ * of a particular component. This is hard to explain in the abstract, and
+ * easy to understand in the concrete, but this is documentation and I'm
+ * lazy, so you'll have to try to cope with the abstract.
