I will look into it. I think that you need to make your own info parameter, and use the current context as the "shared context" parameter. I think you might be right that it's irrelevant, because I think we only set that to give information to the plug-in, and we use the appropriate thing internally. But I'll verify that and then try to clarify it in the docs.

Unless I'm missing something, the documentation doesn't mention that this is supported and it doesn't describe what to pass to the withInfo parameter. I'm guessing you just initialize it yourself and the sharedContext field isn't required. I haven't tried this myself. Are there still limitations on when this should be called? Would you call it while drawing a custom parameter?

The things I've thought of so far are not properly handling non-square pixels, fields, and proxy resolution. So I'm thinking of writing some documentation on how to properly handle those and how to test your plug-ins to ensure that you're properly handling them.
