Yeah, my thinking was to be as complete as possible so that if we needed
to apply register updates, we could. It was also a fascinating insight
into what was stored, I was planning on using it for doing
isolation testing (albeit that's a bit chicken-and-egg).

No qualms about restricting ourselves to the bare essentials on the
basis that the context image is meant to be relative-addressed. It did
not improve stability of tgl-gem however.
