I assume there will still be a reasonable way to say both

"Keep the context just as it is, but turn *off* flag/trap X"
"Keep the context just as it is, but turn *on* flag/trap X"

The easiest might be to just ensure that there is an easy 
way to list current settings (despite the privacy of the dict).
