You might need to check on GC issues. Without examining things  
carefully I would hazard a guess there is some chance of needing to  
have a specialArrayOfSpecialObjectArrays to give a single point for  
GC to handle them all. It might simply fall out in the wash of course.

You'd also need a good  way to get the active process cheaply and one  
that doesn't fall over if someone changes the context chain during  
coroutining or exception handling etc. Classic failure point of  
context caching without sufficient thought.
