hmm, i havent found any prob on the net when using 
context-per-thread-per-window approach. People only mention there is a 
problem when you try to draw to a single context from multiple threads, 
or drawing to the same window using multiple contexts from different 
threads. And im not planning to do that. And if possible, prevent the 
user from doing it as well. But if you found something else, plz, post a 
link to that article, id like to read it.
