 * Implement this and use {@link StructureUtility#withContext(IStructureElement)} in case you need to record some

 * structure than just during structure check. Usually just save some few bytes, but becomes non-trivial if you need to
 * record too much stuff.
 * <p>
 * You will have to reset the context yourself though. The API can't guess when the old context becomes invalid.
