I mostly like this.

However, I intentionally made the bulk of Mercurial's context API look
like method calls rather than member variables. For the most part these
methods are fast, but they can in fact be quite expensive.

Whether or not that's the right choice, I don't see any good reason to
make it different in hglib when it's so obviously trying to mirror that
API.

Please use a leading underscore if this is intended to be 'private'.
