This performs various operations on a field in a context object (right now, specifically a field within the 'data' member of the object). I'm posting this just to get the discussion going on the best way to do this. Right now I'm not satisfied with the way fields are selected from contexts, although it's not like it's totally unviable. May just need a little tweaking. The issue of handling CCK fields (and other array-type fields) correctly still exists, however, and that's something we ought to discuss in this thread.

Yeah, this is something that we are definitely going to need to look more at moving forward. Being able to easily make decisions based upon the values of CCK fields is going to be important.

I marked http://drupal.org/node/515050 as a dup -- it contains some useful discussion on the topic.
