It's really another case of a poor choice of terminology, isn't it? (By
"another" I am referring to my recent critique on this list of the confusing
over-use of the term "key" throughout the animation stuff.) Here we are in a
graphics world, so the user must be forgiven for supposing that "context" is
asking for a graphics context. If the name-mongers had used "contextInfo" as
elsewhere in Cocoa, the purpose of this parameter would have been much more
obvious. m.
