I've been playing with this recently, and my findings (someone else please correct me if I'm wrong) are that it's still poorly supported, ie, it doesn't seem to be supported at all in the latest version of Logic, AU Lab and Final Cut Pro X. I read somewhere that Ableton Live supports it but I haven't checked...
The AUBase classes seem to implement the property (in DispatchGetProperty/DispatchGetPropertyInfo), so if your AU is derived from AUBase and the host supports it, the context string should just magically appear in mContextName
