I think you should reconsider this, if I understood things correctly.

Api.getContext is a method that can be called from any velocity code, and the XWikiContext class should NOT be freely available.

ok, I've added the new getContext() method and moved all core code to
use it. I've not modified the plugins in xwiki-plugins that are not
part of the build yet.

Now we need to decide if we want to move the Api.context variable
from protected to private (as it should be to force the usage of the
accessor).

The only issue is that existing plugins will fail to work against the
new version. They'll need to be modified to use getContext().

WDYT?

Note that we cannot put a deprecation on this unfortunately...

Thanks
