Re: [resteasy-dev] New dependency on reactive-contexts

At the moment, the resteasy-rxjava and resteasy-rxjava2 modules register hooks into the rxjava and rxjava2 plugin/hook system, in order to propagate the RESTEasy context (thread-local) into all phases of rxjava single/flowable/etc, which can otherwise be scheduled on any scheduler/thread and so would lose the RESTEasy context. RxJava being what it is, you can only register a single plugin/hook globally, so if RESTEasy defines it, nobody else can. That's problematic, because CDI also requires context propagation, and so does Redpipe (to name just the two examples I am using ATM), so I created a library called Reactive Contexts which decouples libraries that have a context to propagate (RESTEasy, CDI, Redpipe, etc…) and libraries that provide context propagation (RxJava1, 2, etc…). https://reactiverse.io/reactive-contexts That library is super small (4k core, 13k propagator for rxjava). I'd like to remove the custom context propagation in the resteasy-rxjava/rxjava2 and make those modules depend on a new resteasy-reactive-context which would depend on reactive-contexts-core to provide a context provider for RESTEasy. This way, I can also make CDI and Redpipe provide such a module and all those contexts will be propagated for rxjava for all users :) WDYT? Do you agree on that extra dependency ? It's only for the rxjava modules, not the core.
