It would mean a lot more than that. Also any changes to the current
brush, pattern, gradient, paint-mode, ... would be undone when the
context is popped.

We currently use this to allow scripts to work in their own context. I
am not sure if it is a good idea to use the context push/pop mechanism
in the user interface.
