Background:
Suppose that I use Flickr as Image Gallery for my site.
Now it's not a content type, not a panels, not a views, so how can one set the context on flickr page ?
The path is 'flickr/1/sets'.

If this feature is already in, then i'm sorry, but i can't find it yet.

I still think the best solution is the integration with the Sections module.
here is the actual patch

Thx Pasquella..
But i'm kindda thinking that it'd be better if we do not depends on another module for this, since i thought this is kindda basic stuff.
If we were to require another module for this, i'd vote for the conditions module.

PS: Can't we just use the basic path settings we have at core block module??

Update: I've got my eye on this issue and will get to it as soon as I have a bit more time on my hands. In general, the original philosophy behind context was to not have to use paths/regex style rules when other, simpler logic is available. But I can see that there will be situations where various modules don't/haven't been integrated against context and a path-based context would work as a good stopgap solution.

Long story short, thanks for the patches, I will try to get a good solution in place!

There is a path-based context setter now. Let me know if this doesn't address your needs.
