I guess we need to add providesContext, too :)

@ockham Why wasa this merged. Either of the REST API team signed off and this change is wrong. REST API already has a context value and can be used for something else. |

At the moment, it's correct since Gutenberg relays on |
My apologies, I might not be very familiar with this code, but the fix seemed to make sense and fixed the issue we were seeing. I also wasn't aware it affected the REST API, or that it needed sign-off by the REST API team. Could you elaborate why the change is wrong, and what policy we should observe with regard to sign-off by individual teams? |
Travis passed and this fixes a bug where blocks would not render on the front end if they relied on block context. (the change which introduced the property mapping mechanism basically stopped a block from registering the context it needs.) So it's more of a hotfix :) Maybe we need more strict checks to make sure that PRs affecting API are not merged without sign-off from the API team? |
