> Hello,
>   I always wandered why you *force* chain users to use the Context interface which adds nothing over Map. I would understand that if the Context would not inherit from map and only required
> Object put(String, Object)
> Object get(String)
> But since Context itself IS Map then you gain nothing while disallowing use of Map implementations. I know that sou suggest that Context shall implement "Attribute-Property Transparency" but it is only recomendation and is not forced by commons chains anyway.
> And if you define execute like
> Object execute(Map<String, ? extends Object> context)
> it can still accept Context instances and all its subclasses.
> The downside is that you would have to give up the retrieve method introduced to Context. And BTW the Context imposes hard restriction see my other bug.
