I would have folded this into #3, but if you prefer it being split, then
it's also fine.

I would make this trait sealed. ie:
pub trait DeviceContext: private::Sealed {}
mod private {
pub trait Sealed {}
impl Sealed for super::Core {}
impl Sealed for super::Normal {}
}
Since currently a user can create a custom context (it will be useless,
but then I think it still is better to give them a compile error).
If you make it sealed,
