    Parent context is a DataChannel of a child, so getChannel() would
    return a parent DataContext in case of a nested context and DataDomain
    in case of a top-level context.

    > getChildContexts()

    Context doesn't track its child contexts, only indirectly via event
    manager. If somebody describes a case of why enumerating through a
    context children might be useful (other then sending events, which is
    already implemented), we may add it, storing children via weak
    references to avoid introducing a requirement of explicitly closing
    the child context.
