The current implementation is approximately the opposite:  most of the
Decimal methods have an optional "context" argument, and most the Context
methods delegate to Decimal methods (passing context=self).  That's fine by
me, and I don't see a compelling reason to turn it inside out at this stage.
Both classes derive from (only) object.
