Yah, every caller needs to manage it's own context, so I went with
passing by copy since allocating/deallocating these "half-contexts" (we
only care about token state with these) seems unecessary.

Gladly :) I spent a good amount for a function that did this, not sure
how I missed it.

Indeed. Looks like we were leaking this previously as well. I'll get it
in V2.
